Merry Christmas is coming back to America

It's a petty NON-issue!

Sometimes , feelings is all we have.

@anniepa , Christmas is not a petty event to me. It is all about the reason for living. Jesus is our salvation. He was born to save all of us, no matter how we think we are different for whatever reasons. The best gift to give I believe is the gift of acceptance and love. for every human on the planet.

Yes it has @lookatdesktop wouldn't it be nice if everyone simply wanted to use Christmas as an excuse to be with family and good friends to share a good meal rather than wasting all that time and money on useless gifts? It bugs me that kids are raised to expect gifts all the time, no wonder so many 20somethings think we owe them something.

@rebelann , That would be an improvement for certain.

I am not prejudice towards other religions that are not Christian and I don't care if Santa is going down chimneys or Rudolph has a red nose. It's been turned into a commercial industry anyway.

@lookatdesktop Thanks for your words of encouragement. I hope things are better next year too but I'm afraid I'm not going to count on God helping us much and I'm also afraid by the time Trump is gone, however he leaves office, sooner or later, we'll be beyond help. Every day he does something new to cause permanent damage to the country and the world and I'm not sure how much of it can ever be reversed. All I know is anyone who isn't a self-proclaimed Christian (whether in deeds or not) who is a straight white male is screwed in Trump world. Also children, the poor, the very old and the very sick regardless of gender, race or faith.

I really hope your holiday will be better than expected. I am going Independent next election. Just say no to BAD DAYS. I really hope strongly that next year is better, but it might actually take an ACT OF GOD to change things.

I like your attitude. It is a good thing to just be at peace and not feel anger at people for not being in agreement. Christmas is what it is, a time to give and a time to love and be a caring and generous person to others. But there are those who want to make it impossible to even say Merry Christmas without getting all bend out of shape.

@lookatdesktop Christmas, to me, and not getting into whether Jesus was the son of God or not, is THE festivity of love. The carol in English I most like is Joy to the world.

@marguicha, live and let live is the only answer. Acceptance of diversity and a willingness to share.

@lookatdesktop I guess I should add a disclaimer here and say my "Like" isn't saying I'm asking God to bless the orange creature...lol!

God will bless everyone even Trump.

@anniepa I hope next year the Cheeto will quit.

There is NO hope that he'll do well. I say BASH AWAY, that's what I'm doing.

@anniepa It is not up to one person to Bash away things. People are very destructive. Give Trump a chance. If he does something wrong that gets him impeached, it will be up to the law to decide.

I know exactly what you mean.
