What a travesty!

The poster carissimi posted a thread concerning some sort of Christian Nativity Light Show. I made the point that it might have been better - given our divided world - to have had a Light Show advocating an Inter-faith perspective.

This has been taken badly. Carissimi has now referred to me and posted a message beginning:-

I have read your profile. You appear to suffer from......


That is all I can see. I am told that I am "not allowed" to see the full post!

The original thread is now denied me. Carissimi's own Profile is denied me.

Whatever the cause of this, it is some form of censorship. Quite pathetic.

That is all I want to say.

The Christian Nativity is not an inter faith thing so it couldn't be done.

@Musicman I actually have to agree with you there. Part of being an inclusive society means the acceptance of different religions. Christmas is a Christian holiday and it's ok to acknowledge as such. I don't believe hiding Christian nativity scenes, or Menorahs will serve to increase inclusion. Inclusion means acceptance, not pretending our religions don't exist.

@JimboSaturn I agree with you. I definitely don't see Muslims, Hindu's or Buddhists celebrating the birth of Christ.
@JimboSaturn I take your point. Then again, I don't advocate any form of censorship and would not seek to ban any Light Show, Nativity scene or whatever. I was simply trying to say that an Inter-Faith Light Show would have been a good idea. But yes, I suppose it IS Christmas!

@Musicman I would never be so insensitive and tell a Muslim that she should stop making Eid so religious

@pipedreams I know that your point wasn't out of censorship, and I see your point too. It certainly should not have evoked such anger lol.

@JimboSaturn Ah ha, that is the promise of Universalism! That eventually all will be reconciled.
