I am so sick of hearing people complain about the cup. If you are that upset about it then boycott them and go spend the $5 - $10 dollars on something else... buy a homeless person a hot meal. Put it in the offering plate at church. Donate to a animal shelter. Do not complain about Starbucks not honoring your Christian values b/c I can guarantee it is not what needs to be address here what God does care about is giving to the needy and spreading his words of wisdom to those that need prayers! OK rant over! Emoticon  4951

I don't really know anyone who is actually offended by the cup...I see lots of people (Christians, Agnostics, Atheists, and others) who think the offense is ridiculous.  It's kind of nice, because it's bringing people together, haha. 4951

@Ashley28:
Your choice, but to say they have "hatred" towards Christians is a bit harsh and not very Christian and a very FALSE statement. 4951

@Ashley28: What makes you say they "hate Christians"?  Must be tens of thousands working there.  Do the stockholders hate them?  The CEO? 4951

@tatertot58:
Why are they making such a big deal all of a sudden of the decor on their products??...hmmm let me think...ummm bc the whole world is turning against Christians as we speak. Open your eyes people. Wake up and smell the coffee. Or take a drive to old town spring and take a look at the evil "church" of Lucifer they recently opened. Or turn on the tv and look at all the Christians being beheaded etc. I fear the Lord, like a Christian is supposed to do bc I love the Lord. Do not start telling me I'm not a Christian. God speaks to me on a daily basis bc of my obedience and fear and love.

I used to order their peppermint mocha every season... but over time I've developed a distatse for their coffee; my tummy doesn't agree with it. That's not to say I won't order a Java Chip Mocha Frappucino once in a blue moon. Every other day it's my home-made slow-drip coffee. I don't care about the cup thing. Seems someone was bored & looking for something to offend them. Starbucks is selling "CHRISTMAS" blend products & have other products with Christmas tree patterns on the packaging, so they can't hate it too much. I'm not a Starbucks loyalist, so I don't pay attention to their politics usually. 4951

@Ashley28: so they don't have a cup for jewish holidays or muslim holidays or a kwanzaa cup or.....does that mean they hate all those people too? sorry but your premise is totally illogical and derived from a ****wit pastor trying for a victimhood to garner outrage and add to his blowdried credentials. pick your battles based on reality , not fairy tales.

Oh and why do you think they removed the 10 commandments? And yet they think it's ok to put a big ugly goat statue up for satanic lucifer "worship". Christmas isn't about jingle bells, reindeer and Santa..it's about Jesus. I could care less what they put on their cups..but when they do it so that they won't offend the "beliefs" of non christians .. Which is yet another slap in the face for Christians.. My money will be spent elsewhere, and it is MY right to do so. 4951

@Ashley28: BS... I would be willing to bet it was on purpose.
 
Christians have been persecuted forever, this is nothing new it is just now there is various forms of media in the world that feel it is right to sensationalize the negative aspects in addition to making something out of a paper cup that is really nothing. Anything to get a rise out of people I guess.
 
Not one said you were not a Christian, your comments were just not very Christian like in my opinion.

If they did, I doubt they would get rid of it bc of one person's opinion. But when it has anything to do with Jesus, they have to get rid of it. Sad sick world we live in.

@Ashley28: Did you ever think that the red cup may be more cost effective?  I mean, Valentines Day's color is red so they won't be throwing out thousands of stupid snowflake cups.
