Amanda,
It's not "my views" on christmas, it's Jehovah God's views as expressed in His Word the Bible, and thus I'm doing my Christian duty to help people learn God's will.
Anybody in their right mind who has any love at all for God would not want to dishonor Him or His Son, Jesus Christ, but billions do out of ignorance of the truth and having been misled by false teachings and family traditions, the author of which is Satan the Devil.
Don't try to make me a villain here. I'm trying to help people learn the truth, because I was once in their shoes! And anywhere I see misunderstandings, I will seek to correct same.
And no one is trying to "shoot them down" as you say. On the contrary, I'm educating them in order to try and help them draw closer to God by learning the truth and praying in a manner that is acceptable to Him. It is certainly no harder for anyone to use the holy name of Jehovah in their prayers than to simply say "God" is it? No, of course not. And if they do it the way He Himself says to, He will be pleased! It's ridiculous for you to say they would be intimidated and not try to pray if they simply had to exchange God's Holy name, Jehovah, instead of the title "God" in their prayers!
