GUEST,ConĂ¡n BS: De-Christianizing Christmas (109* d) RE: BS: De-Christianizing Christmas 11 Jan 02


Why is it that not one contributor even attempted to respond to Jimmy C's thoughts as a Christian ?
Were they too sincere ? Were they suspect just because they came from a believer?
I should have thought that his opinions, above any others, should have been treated with more respect. Had a Musulman or a Hebrew voiced sincere doubts about attempts to de-religionise*their* particular celebratory days, I'd bet my life they would have had more than a plethora of conciliatory and sympathetic supporters.
It is becoming increasingly clear that one is free to believe anything or nothing in today's Western Society with one major proviso - IT MUST NOT BE CHRISTIAN !
All I can do is pray for the poor benighted individuals who feel that *my* religious beliefs in some way threaten *them*.
