Really? <br /><br />Funny, I think atheists in general accomodate themselves with Christmas, or indeed any religious holiday, pretty well. The most proheminent symbol of the season, the Christmas tree, has tis roots in Pagan myths, and so are its variations, such as the Yule log or our Bûche de Noël. Christians families have a freaking Yggdrasil representation in their living room, and no fundie ever complaints. Even the Nativity Scene is filled with Pagan symbolism.Guillaumehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12376749604845793465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33241741.post-63369521679412725502009-12-10T15:07:35.476-06:002009-12-10T15:07:35.476-06:00I thought it was funny that Bass-Pro shops were th...I thought it was funny that Bass-Pro shops were the first shop on the yellow list. My boss was just telling me last week about how they had the greatest Santa display, and I should take my son. I didn't, but I saw a billboard just this Monday, advertising the Bass Pro Santa.<br /><br />So I wonder how they're marginalizing Christmas.

No...This is one "war" they can't win. No retailer is going to willingly limit their markets, due to a portion of their demongraphic possibilities. Unlike the "theist/atheist" divide, where theists surely have us outnumbered, the "conservative wingnut vs. all other human beings with money" falls to "all other human beings with money" so far as numbers.<br /><br />The only national or global retailers who would appease AFA would be those with owners who already lean toward that agenda already--like Hobby Lobby, and I think Walmart does as well? I know Ross locally carries a load of religious items as well. But I think that's just for their religious customers. I don't get the feel they're a particularly religious store...?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33241741.post-73909726238630019142009-12-10T09:49:21.741-06:002009-12-10T09:49:21.741-06:00Looks like the people at the AFA, "don't ...Looks like the people at the AFA, "don't play nice". lol"<br /><br />Yes cause bitching about people not degrading jews at x-mas is entirely the same as bitching about Rick Warren giving silent consent to mass murder.<br /><br />What planet are you from?Inghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13024689390434414829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33241741.post-61106952178208463682009-12-10T09:47:10.518-06:002009-12-10T09:47:10.518-06:00Did anyone else notice Best Buy is on both lists? ...Did anyone else notice Best Buy is on both lists?
