I've worked here for 8 years and not once have I received a "Merry Christmas!" email. All company messaging around Christmas is watered down to "Happy Holidays" so as not to offend everyone.
I'm not a Christian fwiw but this pisses me off.
I quickly typed a response that said, "Thank you, and I look forward to receiving a Merry Christmas email later this year!", but at least for now I haven't sent it.
I'm just sick and fucking tired of everything Christian being erased from society, while non-Christian holidays are promoted and celebrated by name.
Send the email response or nah?
If I moved to a Muslim country and complained about Islamic holiday celebrations I would be told to shut up. I’m a Christian but I’ve known atheists who celebrate it from a secular standpoint and other non Christians who say unless I’m being forced to celebrate, I don’t care what people say.
Maybe some people go overboard with the war on Christmas stuff but the fear people have in acknowledging a holiday celebrated by most is ridiculous
If you are lucky.
That’s true. Or I would be shut up permanently. I could swear I remember a saying “when I’m done do as romans do” so if you came to live in a new country it was your job to assimilate
You'd be jailed or simply killed.
