Ärende: Merry Fucking Christmas
===============================
Hello David!

30 Dec 09 10:59, you wrote to me:

 RC>>>> So there are no such thing as Straight Pride Parades?
 DD>>> Straights are ashamed of their sexuality?
 RC>> Not at all, they just dont need to organize parades to flaunt it.

 DD> Obviously they're not as proud of it as the gays are.

Maybe normal needs no recognition?

 RC>> Why dont you accept it for the sentiment?

 DD> What sentiment? That a feast in memory of Jesus' birth should be a
 DD> merry event? I have no happiness about an event that supposedly
 DD> happened over 2000 years ago.

Then nod your head and move on... <deja-vu>

 DD> Christmas today is about greed and excess. I try not to practice
 DD> either.

I dont disagree with the commercialism, but its not like it is the only thing
commercialised.

For instance, tourism is commercialised and you played that game last year when
you polluted South America.

 RC>> What is the difference between them and someone whom just tells
 RC>> you to have a nice day, how do you know they really mean it?

 DD> They usually don't. Try giving a non standard answer and they don't
 DD> notice. They don't really care, social brainwashing has them just
 DD> saying these things.

See, now as I told you, nod your head and move on..

 RC>>>> Outside of that, "doth do protest too much".
 DD>>> Huh?
 RC>> Getting all worked up over a simple greeting/expressed sentiment.

 DD> Not worked up, just declining to participate and objecting to being
 DD> forced.

I dont see how you are being forced..

I have lived in the Bible Belt of the USA all my life, and they still havent
forced me to do anything or believe anything I wish not to.

Your position is nonsensical, irrational alarmist b(ovine) scat.. :-)

Talk to me when you are forced under penalty of law or physical duress.

 DD>>> What sentiment? I don't practice Christmas. 25 December is no
 DD>>> more merry day that any of the other 364.

 RC>> and how do others know this?

 DD> Those in contact with me get told every year, and still they get
 DD> snitty when I won't participate in their silliness.

I would think you would be more tolerant with your friends?
