I have received comments from representatives of several different faiths, beleifs and non beliefs and yours in the only one that saw things from this angle. I apologize if I offended you, my intent was exactly the opposite. Your post is anonymous so I presume you don't know me, because if you did you would know how far this interpretation is from the person I am. I hope you enjoy your holiday, whatever it is. That's all I was ever trying to say.Sallyhttp://www.sfmaggie.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1448355842093887606.post-83555742224632563192009-12-11T18:42:08.240-08:002009-12-11T18:42:08.240-08:00I find it odd that you speak so often of including...I find it odd that you speak so often of including everyone, of having space for everyone, and yet you cannot make space in your language for those who do not celebrate what you celebrate. It isn't about political correctness, just like including everyone and accessibility isn't about political correctness, it is about respecting and including others through our words and actions. While your long version certainly seems to indicate you respect those who do not have your religion your refusal to use inclusive language that makes space for others celebrations doesn't. I don't understand why you would insist on saying, "Merry Christmas" to someone who doesn't celebrate Christmas. It is full of the entitlement of someone who knows they are in the majority. You assume others should accept your greeting. Yet, you get angry when others make assumptions about Maggie. You write long posts about the ridiculous things people say because they make assumptions. Assumptions they too make because they are in a position of entitlement because they are in the majority. It is too bad you can't extend your attitude of inclusion and having space for everyone to this season, when your Savior who came to preach love would ask you think about how your words and actions impact others.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
