ATTENTION

This is an open letter to people mad that "Christmas" is often replaced by "holiday" (Holiday Tree, Happy Holidays, etc.)

SHUT.

THE.

FUCK.

UP.

Got that?

No?

SHUT UP.

You know WHY that change has been made? Because we're trying to be more tolerant to people. Because we want to make ourselves, our community, and our country BETTER.

Secondly, how the FUCK does it affect you? (I have the same question for people against gay marriage) SO WHAT if it's a "Holiday" tree instead of a "Christmas" tree? YOU CAN CALL IT WHATEVER YOOOOOOUUUUUUU WANT.

Third, you know what holiday means? HOLYday. As in a day that is holy.

Next, here's the big one. America is NOT a Christian country. NOT. NOOOOOTTTT. NOT. It isn't. We're a mixed country, with all religions. If you add up all the Muslims, Jews, Hindus, and followers of every other religion in this country, plus the atheists, agnostics, and other nonreligions, there's more of them than Christians. Which means, the majority of people in America aren't Christian. What's democracy say again? Majority rules right? Yeah, that doesn't make us a Christian nation. Know that that makes us? THE GREATEST NATION. (Apologies to my Canadian friends, but, seriously, we've got you beat)

And, lastly, we're also the greatest nation because we're tolerant of people who are different from us. Part of being tolerant means we have to be willing to change to accommodate others' beliefs and traditions. This includes things like changing Christmas to holiday in public.

Sincerely,

Reilly "Monty" Weakley.
