It’s a celebration of Christ’s birth. Christ’s mass. We’re already inclusive. Other cultures and religions celebrate their special events and dates, Diwali, Ramadan, Eid and Hanukkah etc and I’ve never heard anyone object to that so why can’t we do the same. It’s a joyful time and maybe a time for reflection for the majority of folks here and even if they’re not practicing Christians, they will enjoy themselves around 25th December and to say we should simply call it a ‘holiday’ is crass stupidity. It’s CHRISTMAS and always will be Christmas. A case of the tail wagging the dog again! echo. . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, and to return to the OP: we haven't been stopped from using the term "Father" either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
