Christmas lights or holiday lights not wanting to offend someone

pickme2 :
If that offends anyone they need to move to the boonies 😂

Christmas lights for sure

pickme2 :
Our Christmas lights were installed last week but we won't turn them on until after Thanksgiving. Installers have to begin in early November.

Thanksgiving is shrinking every year. Used to be the time for family gatherings. It was the only non commercial holiday. Now it disappears between Halloween and Christmas. Sad

Yeah, I don't get being offended by someone else's celebrations, cultures, etc. If it's not for you, move on, lol.
As for religious holidays, there should be freedom to celebrate without anyone getting offended. I have yule trees, call yours what you like, lol.
I'm offended someone needs to worry about offending someone. Life is short, make it an experience.

Exactly... if someone tells you Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Happy Kwanzaa, Happy Holidays, or even Happy Festivus -- accept it for the positive wishes intended by the person who says it. There's plenty of room for us to have different beliefs, and still do that.For me, it's Merry Christmas -- but as much as I'd like for everyone to accept Christ and be saved, not everyone is going to, and God doesn't force Himself on anyone. As for those who would say something else to me, I know they mean it with well wishes, and their differeing belief is of no harm to me.
