This raises an interesting point: I don't see any of those communists who complain about Christmas being offensive saying a word about getting days off of work because of it. "Christmas" is the only holiday that is officially given off to everyone, so if you don't believe in it, and complain about it being offensive, doesn't that mean you should be working on December 25th (or the associated released day)?

I am pretty much agnostic, bordering on atheism, so I could give two shits about the birth of Jesus. That said, I respect traditions. Christmas is a tradition in this country. People need to understand, appreciate, and accept traditions in this nation. Fuckers.

This rises another point... where did you get the idea the communism or the communists are against Xmas, consider it offensive or anything in that direction?
I grew up under communism, I am not a communism myself and nobody in my family was, although some of them were members of the CP, they had to, otherwise their life would have been extremely hard. It's easy to eventually condemn them, but it's something else when you have to deal with the system personally.
Anyway, back to the topic, the communism is not necessarily against religion, it's the people who "implement" or enforce it that are against. I mean, see the red china... not that red anymore, but still.

Communism and religion are mutually exclusive because religion breeds elitism.
 
Well, he once was ok, I mean see the Prag Spring, he refused to take part in the actions and confronted the russian leaders upfront, but then he kinda went crazy, paranoid, don't know what really happened, but the results can be seen and felt even today.

might be lose... but it's better, no referer involved and only the ones who would actually give a x8*x8* will actually copy/paste... of course, the elite *nix freaks will rather type it 'cause it's faster :tard:
