Merry Christmas, from The Firearm Blog!
The festival of Christmas commemorates the birth of Jesus of Nazareth, lord and savior in the Christian religion. More than that, though, the holiday has come to symbolize peace on earth and goodwill towards the people of all the religions and nations on Earth, regardless of belief. In these cold winter months, we remember that peace and brotherhood can flourish in imperfect men, no matter how dark the night may get.
We at TFB want to wish all of our readers a very merry Christmas, and a Happy New Year. Spend this day with your family and friends, and we’ll see you tomorrow!

Well spoken. "Merry Christmas" doesn't mean "I'm here to foist my religion on you", it means "I wish you Merry Christmas, regardless of what you belive"!
More than that? Sorry, but peace on earth and secularism will never be more important than God and Christ, never. God is always the most important being, more important than all humanity and all countries combined. This is the problem with secular humanism, everything is upside down and warped to the point of absurdity. Good becomes evil and evil becomes good. If it is not about Christ, it is not Christmas. Merry Christmas to TFB and remember, Jesus is THE ONLY Reason for the Season. VIVA CRISTO REY!!
