Wow 72 rep points is alot. Compared to others who are in the thousands. This aint the first your like boasting on your "high" rep points.

Well thats your opinion on things but how the world is now, your opinion wont change it so like yea.

We allow others to come into our country because not everyone in the government are like you who think only one race should live here.

Who cares? Multi-cultural is the best way because you get to learn from others about their religion and their beliefs. Just because you dont agree with them doesnt mean anything does it?



But were not a muslim country. We are a multi-cultural country

I said if we were a Muslim country not we are a muslim country

In my opinion Multicultralism doesn't really work, EG Last year in France there were riots.

And to the people who come to this country and complain about Christmas can get the hell out !

Winterval?! OMG CHRISTMAS IS RUINED

Im a huge anti-censorship freak, but seriously, deal with it. It doesnt mean anything, its only certain people's insecurities. They arent attacking christmas. Attacking Christmas would sound like this: "CHRISTMAS IS THE EVILEST DAY ON THE FACE OF THE PLANET!".

Is Christmas cancelled? Are they taking away people's religious rights? No, theyre just trying to be politically correct.

Guess what people?! There's more than 1 holiday in December! (OMG REALLY?) YES. Check out a calender. Thats why people say happy holidays. People would say Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Happy Quanza, and a happy New Year, but people have THINGS TO DO.

thats not fair

It's ruining tradition.. how would the Muslims or any religion like it if we called Ramadan or for the Jewish people Hanukkah something else to be 'politically correct' ?

Christmas is about celebrating the coming of Christ not just something to do with Winter. Christmas is so commercialized now, it's crazy. At least here they haven't done something, but I have no idea why they've done it in the UK "/

Thats different, because this isnt another religion changing it. These are christians trying to be politically correct.

And is this 'Winterval' celebrated exactly like christmas is?

Well if it's Christians trying to change it to be politically correct, their not true Christians. It's the coming of Christ we're celebrating, not just all the gifts we get and the holidays.

And Winterval is celebrated like Christmas, but it ruins the complete tradition of it being 'Christmas'. Christmas, is when Jesus came to the Earth, but now it's just gift-giving and holidays. The name shouldn't be changed to 'Winterval' in my opinion, it should just be kept as Christmas.

Winterval is the name they want to give to the winter holiday season, making it non-religious. I'm not religious as I've said previously, but Christmas is much-loved tradition that we shouldn't have to change just to suit a minority. If we take up the view that all minority decisions should become reality then no-one will be allowed to do anything, as there's always someone who doesn't like it.

Take for example the fact that so many hundreds of thousands of Brits nowadays would like to see a stop to immigration and a start to deportation (as proved by the increasing number of votes won by UKIP and to a lesser extent the BNP). I'm all for that myself, but I'm sure not everyone is, and so it doesn't happen. So why should a view expressed by a small percentage of a minority faction be put into motion?

The thing is. Christians always get everything worse off, all other religions and holidays and things get to keep them exactly the same. Yet for us we have to change everything to suit them, even though THEY don't even celebrate it! Quite frankly its pathetic.

This matter can change into other topics as well. For example if a white man killed a black man they would say on the news "It was a racist attack". Yet if a black man killed a white man, it would just be something normal. :rolleyes:

[FlyingJesus]

Precisely. A white, Christian/Agnostic/Atheist male of good mental and physical health has no rights any more. We can be attacked but heaven help us if we even open our mouths to speak on the topic of anyone in a non-PC way.
