DDOJ - Merry Christmas or Happy Holidays?

Christians getting upset at the idea of giving respect to other people's religions again...

When has unqualified arrogance and unearned disrespect ever gotten us far as a species?

Sorry about the sound quality ... just imagine you're listening to a record player!

DDOJ = Daily Doses of Jesus, a youtube theme started by a youtuber i watch, but can't remember the name of, where you post interesting debates with religious people who say stupid or discriminatory things on facebook that you just can't hold your tongue on, but are not sure how to best respond. The person making the post poses the question to the audience (usually before answering themselves) to see how best to proceed - mockery, serious discussion, just ignore, etc...

The creator of DDOJ expressed interest in others who had similar stories to his, so i figured i'd post one that was quite recently discussed on my own facebook wall.

@chibicat13 Echoed. "How dare you say i can't say Merry Christmas? Respect my beliefs!"

"Because there are others with other beliefs with their own holidays that do not recognize christmas, much like your religion does not recognize them."

"Exactly, so i shouldn't have to be attacked by 'Happy Holidays!' It's Merry Christmas"

"Who's attacking you, paranoid psychopath? Did your pastor tell you to think this way? Why can't you show respect to other beliefs?"

"Hell."

There it goes...

It's all paganism. Christians can be such hypocrites! They talk respect for others yet demand their religion get the most attention, it appears that only Christianity is worthy of respect.... American Christians go nuts over a single sign posted by atheists about the winter solstice while drowning everyone else with their nativity scenes... what a self-centered religion.
