The Christianity Today article was surprisingly reasonable about it.

But don't be so sure the war is over: http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/chick-fil-a-declares-war-on-christmas

This evangelist, named Joshua Feuerstein, is where the Starbucks thing started.

We'd never have a war on Christmas, since we lose almost every war we fight. We lost the "war on drugs." We lost the "war on poverty." We lost the "war on terrorism" (or at least are a very long way from winning  it, so far). We lost the "war on germs."

Wars don't seem to work for us very well, so a "war on Christmas" would do us no good. It would simply be wasted energy.

Do Christians want non-Christians to participate in Christmas or not? I'm getting mixed messages.

Christians want all of us to pack their church pews and fill their coffers with our cash. As for commercial spending, it should benefit their organizations exclusively, of course! This may not be so hard a demand to meet when Donald Trump finally admits he's really Jesus Christ.
There are two types of ideas: fact and non-fact. Ideas which are not falsifiable are non-fact, therefore please don't insist your fantasies of supernatural beings are in any way factual.

Doctrine = not to be questioned = not to be proven = not fact. When you declare your doctrine fact, you lie.

Yes.  But it has to be really, really, really Jesusy or no dice.

This is why aliens will never visit this planet.
We 'new atheists' have a reputation for being militant, but make no mistake  we didn't start this war. If you want to place blame put it on the the religious zealots who have been poisoning the minds of the  young for a long long time."

It's been cancelled? Too bad my lighted asshole of a neighbor who also farts Xmas tunes loud enough for the whole subdivision to hear didn't get the memo!
