quick question people

does anyone think that the above statement is racist??? :confused:

some ppl dont celebrate christmas adn some do - how is that racist??

thanks for the negative karma B.R. :)

Re: Is this racist?

i dont see anything racist not all people like xmas let alone celebrate it for many reasons least of all race or culture :confused:

Re: Is this racist?

It strikes me as barely literate and largely inchoherant, but that is not a punishable offence as far as I am aware, I fail to see where the racist element is though.

Re: Is this racist?

Ignore them mate.
I have stated on here several times that I don't believe in God but I don't get negative karma from the God botherers on here.
I think its a bit gay that men like to watch 22 hairy legged blokes in shorts running around a football field kicking a bag of wind about as well but that has not given me negative, until now probably :rolleyes::D

Maybe the karma was given for a different racist reason :eek:

Re: Is this racist?

If that's racist then I'm a pink elephant.

I'm a Christian but not even offended by the word "Crimbo". I know Pagans who celebrate "Yule" at this time of year but I end up wishing everybody a Merry Christmas and if that offends them then they are too thin skinned that's all I can say.

Completely baffled as to why you lost karma Mani. Don't let the racist who did it get you down.

BTW I agree with you about football to an extent Neil, although I do feel chuffed when Stanley win, I couldn't sit there freezing to death watching them do it. As a "God botherer" (yep, He probably feels very bothered by me at times!) I don't get the 'ump at the atheists amongst us either - crikey most of the atheists I know celebrate Christmas too though! :D

I do hope you are not using the word atheist when referring to me :rolleyes::D

I said above that I don't believe in God, I did not say I don't believe he exist (it is doubtful though). I just don't believe in Him if he exists or not, if you know what I mean.

As far as Stanley go, yes I like it when our local team win, I would always like or local sports people to do well, if they are indeed local but that is another topic.
How can the England football team have a foreigner at the reigns? :confused:

Re: Is this racist?

Would that make you agnostic then Neil?

Quote:

Agnosticism (from the Greek a, meaning "without", and gnosticism or gnosis, meaning "knowledge") is the philosophical view that the truth value of certain claims—particularly metaphysical claims regarding theology, afterlife or the existence of God, gods, deities, or even ultimate reality—is unknown or, depending on the form of agnosticism, inherently unknowable due to the nature of subjective experience.
Agnostics claim either that it is not possible to have absolute or certain knowledge of the existence or nonexistence of God or gods; or, alternatively, that while individual certainty may be possible, they personally have no knowledge. Agnosticism in both cases involves some form of skepticism. There are, however, some agnostics who believe in a god.
Demographic research services normally list agnostics in the same category as atheists and non-religious people,[1] although this can be misleading depending on the number of agnostic theists who identify themselves first as agnostics and second as followers of a particular religion.

Probably not no. I don't know if there is a God or not. I am not really bothered either way, as I have stated before if there is one I don't think He is the kind of person I want to associate myself with. I do however think that Christian values are a good way to live. As in treating people correctly etc. I can't help thinking if there is a God then He is not a very Christian person himself. How do you sit back and watch people suffer without trying to help. That was not the Christian way I was taught in school.

Now if someone could show me some documented and provable examples, of some good things He has done in the last couple of hundred years maybe I might see Him in a different light.

It isn't racist in my opinion, but you deserve negative karma for butchering the written word. :D
