I know in school, everyone is all hyped up about how stupid political correctness is.

-I agree to a certain point, but i dont think we shouldnt be able to say "merry christmas" in school, or play songs w/ Jesus in them (ie: Silent Night)

I think its getting out of hand.

you?

I agree with the white and black. Saying someone is black is considered rude. And I also agree with playing songs with jesus in them being unexceptable in schools and public places, this leads to the question, how come they're ALLOWED to have a jesus radio channel!? HELLO?!?!??!?! Talk about invading my religous rights tongue.gif

Anyhow, I am totally non christian (can you tell?) and I don't see anything wrong with saying "merry christmas". At least if you celebrate it, which I do. And I don't see how you're expected to know wether someone celebrates it or not jsut by glancing at them so really they shouldn't be offended if you say merry christmas to them. Just nod a smile. I mean you have to agree with me that "season's greetings" sounds pretty lame. I'm impartial to "happy holidays" but "merry christmas" still tops my list.

it's annoying to always say caucasian and african american. it's sounds pretentious to always say that. and it's not rude since that's what they are.

it's just like how you shouldn't make fun of other people if you can't make fun of yourself. you wouldn't call an asian an asian-american would you? so why should anyone get angry about not being called african americans or caucasians.
