Forget “Happy holidays.” What Sen. Chris Buttars wants to hear from Utah retailers is “Merry Christmas.”
The West Jordan Republican is having a resolution drafted for the 2009 Legislature that he said asks retailers not to “exclude Christmas from your holiday greetings.” Resolutions, of course, cannot be enforced.
Buttars said he is seeking the resolution because he was contacted by several employees of a retailer he declined to name that had been told they couldn’t say “Merry Christmas” to customers.
Madonna in Shasta Lake, CA writes, “We’re supposed to love the sinner and hate the sin…loving them isn’t condoning their sinful choice.”
Lucretia in Rancho Santa Margarita, CA writes, “I will no longer, ever, buy another Hallmark product, under any name, unless you pull these cards.”
Brenda in Olivehurst, CA writes, “Not only I, but my entire family no longer buy cards and gift from your company, and we will not as long as you promote homosexuality.”
E. in Vista, CA writes, “I will not buy cards from your company anymore as long as you cater to this tragedy.”
If you’ve got the time, why not drop Hallmark a note telling them thanks for not being the bigots these zealots would prefer them be and for recognizing the relationships of gay couples?

A church over in Shreveport, Louisiana recently decided to have an old fashioned book burning which was picked up by the local news. Nothing new, really. Small Christian communities do it all the time here in the south it seems. In fact, there’s a church about 30 minutes north of here that should be doing [...]
Jerry Marszalek, a football coach in Michigan, has lost his job after allowing an assistant to pester Muslim students into becoming Christians. As you can expect, the professional Christian set is not happy about the development and have decided to spin it as yet another act of persecution – against Christians. According to an article [...]
Yesterday I wrote about various Christian groups that don’t seem to understand that anti-discrimination laws protect them not just from non-Christians, but from each other due in part to their constant battles over who’s a True Christian and the like. Today I find a post over at A Whore in the Temple of Reason about [...]
A photographer was recently found guilty of discrimination in New Mexico for refusing to photograph the wedding of a lesbian couple because of the “message” it sent. It should come as no surprise that the photographer in question is a Christian who thinks homosexuality is a “sin”. The professional Christian Martyr set is a bit [...]
First they figured out that we members of the godless horde cannot be found in a church. Now they’ve went and figured out that we don’t expect to be pestered by ‘em on Sunday morning. I saw them walking about last week, but figured I was being paranoid due to lack of coffee. So when [...]
