We have this kind of reactionary nonsense in the UK: First create a 'straw man' to indicate that there's some kind of conspiracy to attack our traditions - the gullible become so outraged that the fact the story was effectively spun out of nothing, or a completely insignificant matter, is neither here nor there. Usually it's as inocuous as a school choosing to not do a nativity ("Now Jesus is banned!"). You can get a whole lot more right-wing through when you are 'fighting for our freedoms".
I wanna just hug y'all and tell you what! Merry Christmas! And someone needs to hug y'all to and feed you some good food! I finally figured out what is wrong with the world! Everyone needs a hug and a biscut and sweet tea in the morning! And Mr. Jon Stewart is still going to hell cause Mr. Bill O'Rielly said so! Merry Christmas! And I have to tell you I am not prejudice I will says Merry Christmas to just about anyone!
It is clear that Jon has won this battle. If you want to say Merry Christmas that is fine and dandy, but if someone else doesn't, that is fine and dandy all the same. <3
"he refuses to call it a Christmas tree, he instead insists we call it the devils pie" - Jon Stewart. You'd think Christians actually thought this from the way they react from calling it a holiday tree. Lol Jesus wasn't even born in winter, they don't know when because he isn't real. The church stopped celebrating his birthday in spring and made it winter to steal the biggest celebration of the year (the winter solstice by the pagans for their god Isis) and made it their own.
Bill O Reilly is a fucking idiot. Stewart bombarded him with arguments. Fox doesn't know what religious freedom is according to this video. All they had to saw was..."He's going to hell"...classy.
Bill O'Reilly should also recognize that those same Puritans also considered Catholic Irish like him to be despicable, less than human, and certainly not Christians.
I love the Christian love that O'Reily send Stewart, playing God and damning him to hell. "Peace be with you, excpet for you Stweart. You're going to hell."
America is not a Christian nation. It is a nation of freedom. You can wish me Merry Christmas and I can wish you a Happy Muharram, the Islamic new year. The first amendment cuts both ways because America has no religious bias.
@whong09 America was founded based on Christian principles. If you've read the true American history, you would know that. Too bad you read the American history Karl Marx edition.
@gamefreak1000000 I'm sorry but I am an immigrant and am not interested in guessing at the intentions of those who founded this country. None of that matters today, what does matter is the law of the land. I believe the first amendment starts like this "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof" Let me ask you, is there an official religion of the United States?
@whong09 Legal or illegal? Nonetheless, the U.S has a freedom of religion. That means you can worship whatever religion you want here. However, the left really love to bash Christianity because they are on our common enemy's side (Islam extremism). The enemy wants to cut our heads off and kill us. They don't know that because they are too sheltered to realize that. Now, I was born in this country, so I loved it my whole life. That is why I hate liberals that are destroying this country.
@gamefreak1000000 hmmm. I seem to think Islamic extremism is more similar to Christianity. They both are religions who's extreme follows are against gays and for more traditional (conservative) values. The real conservative religious Republican leader are a lot like the Taliban.
@gabepizza Do conservatives chop people's heads off? Do conservatives push for sharia law? There are some conservatives that are atheists as well, genius. You can't compare conservatives to Muslim extremists because they are nothing alike. Obama and Hitler on the other hand, is a whole other story...
@gamefreak1000000 They both are religious. They both are anti-gay. And you're an idiot for saying you can't compare Muslim extremist and conservatives yet compare Obama to Hitler. Hitler was a fascist. Fascists are conservatives.
@gamefreak1000000 Yes, because Obama is renowned for being a brutal dictator who exerts his will relentlessly through brute force upon those he doesn't like. Except it's the exact opposite, and he's actually a pussy who bends over for the Republican Party and goes back on all of his views he put forth in the election.
@gamefreak1000000 The US also has the Freedom from Religion. People who do not choose to believe have a right not to be outcasted, or treated differently. Jefferson drafted the Virginia Freedom of Religion Act. Not to protect religion, but to protect those who wish to not practice, or practice something different. the Left bashes christianity because its silly (this story is a case in point), Conservatives destroy the country just as much as liberals do. You should remember that.
@whong09 Thomas Jefferson "That no man shall be compelled to frequent or support any religious worship, place, or ministry whatsoever, nor shall be enforced, restrained, molested, or burdened in his body or goods, nor shall otherwise suffer on account of his religious opinions or belief; but that all men shall be free to profess, and by argument to maintain, their opinions in matters of religion, and that the same shall in nowise diminish, enlarge, or affect their civil capacities."
@gamefreak1000000 This is not my argument, but I would like to fix a historical error. America was not founded based on Christian principals.The colonies still under British rule were founded by puritans. America the country was mainly founded by the beliefs of Deism and Unitarianism, which included George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Benjamen Franklin, John Adams, and other founding fathers. America was founded based on reason and logic, not on Christian Principals.
@gamefreak1000000 First of all America was founded by Englishmen who were coming to look for economic gains in a new land with precious metals. Visit jamestown and you will learn about this first hand. The puritans came a little later and up to the north and I dont think you should be proud of their principles of murdering and raping indians because god told them to, or the murdering of hundreds of women because they were "witches"they also outlawed marriages from the church. I could go on. . .
Instead of just spouting bullshit Christian fundamentalist patriotism Carrie why don`t you actually listen and learn from Jon Stewart? Particularly the part where he calls Laura Ingraham for the Christian fundamentalist bullshit SHE is spouting.
You could learn something and yet you refuse to. That is a sure sign of idiocy!
Exactly. These conservatives are allegedly so ultra patriotic yet the concept of America's "melting pot" is lost on them. There are other holidays happening this time of year and there is nothing wrong in including them and not singling out one single fake god.
Never mind the freedom of religion.... we're obviously a CHRISTIAN NATION....... oh wait..... no we're not. I believe in God, yes. But, the reason christmas is even on Dec. 25th is to coincide with pagan rituals. Also, as mr. stewart states, the pilgrims outlawed christmas..... but that was the pilgrims and this is now. We MUST save christmas, we can't acknowledge other religions, they're obviously subpar to the christian faith..........
