In reply to the discussion: #WTF!! Some Christians Are Super Offended By The New Starbucks Red Cup Design [View all]Dr. Strange
(25,921 posts)22. Hezekiah, chapter 5.
Lo, when the Christmas season cometh upon thy house, be sure to follow the signs and ways of the Lord thy God. This doth include, but doth not be limited to:
snowflakes,
peppermint-mocha coffee flavorings,
those hard candies that always get stuck together (the ones that the elders of the tribe seem to enjoy),
cherry cordials,
ice skates (especially hockey skates, like those that carried the Children of Israel forth from Egypt),
wreaths.
And when thou decoratest thy home, use many lights. For this will be a sign unto God that thou lovest Him. As it is written, Johovah loves a good light show, yea, especially when synchronized to Trans-Siberian Orchestra music.
Also, forgettest thou not the watching of the Peanuts Christmas special. For it is teh awesome, and Snoopy is the greatest dog ever.

OP
I am super offended by self-styled Christians constantly whining that they're "persecuted"

I'm waiting for them to be fed to the lions at halftime. THEN they can claim persecution.

I missed the Bible passage about ice skates and snowflakes as Christmas symbols.

I don't drink Starbucks and am not offended, but I like the old one on the left better.

Check if your city hall, which shouldn't have any tree at all, is calling it a holiday tree.

Oh, come on. A mermaid splaying her tail fin on a red cup is clearly lewd AND Satanic.
