We all hear about this supposed war on Christmas. Honestly I've come to the conclusion that there is a war on Christmas. Christians are waging war on Saint Nick (a real historical figure) and the Winter Solstice Holiday that Christianity, indeed, assimilated into it's own, just like Easter and the tooth fairy. I'm not interested in who started the winter solstice celebrations *cough, pagans, cough --but I do get tetchy when someone tells me or anyone else, how to celebrate our own goddamn holiday!
So Christians, if you may, please vote in the poll and if you have the gumption to do so, feel free to explain why you voted that way please. Because all I see is a jackass in a store being a giant fucking Grinch.

"A real-life Grinch sparked outrage among parents at a Texas mall when he took it upon himself to announce to a line of children anxiously waiting to meet Kris Kringle that Santa Claus isn’t real.
Evangelical pastor David Grisham filmed himself pulling off the stunt at Amarillo’s Westgate Mall in an effort to teach kids “that Christmas is about Jesus Christ,” then posted the video to his Facebook page Saturday. “Kids, I want to tell you today that there is no such thing as Santa Claus,” he’s heard hollering while walking alongside the long line of kids and their parents. “The man you’re going to see today is just a man in a suit, dressed up like Santa, but Santa does not exist,” he continues. “Santa’s not real. And parents you all need to stop lying to your children and telling them that Santa Claus is real when in fact he’s not.””*
If I were to create self aware beings knowing fully what they would do in their lifetimes, I sure wouldn't create a HELL for the majority of them to live in infinitely! That's not Love, that's sadistic. Therefore a truly loving god does not exist!
Dead wrong. The actions of a finite being measured against an infinite one are infinitesimal and therefore merit infinitesimal punishment.
I say again: No exceptions. Punishment should be equal to the crime, not in excess of it. As soon as the punishment is greater than the crime, the punisher is in the wrong.
Quote:The sin is against an infinite being (God) unforgiven infinitely, therefore the punishment is infinite.
