I am friends with a few non-Christian believers and I still give them Christmas cards, some are with a Muslim faith. And they are happy to recieve such cards, yes they do not have the sendimantal value for them personally, but it is a gift of good will.

If anybody is offended by "Merry Christmas" I would persoanlly would force them to go to Midnight Mass.

Praise be Harry.

The laugh is: the article in question makes mention of 4 of the most morally corrupt retailers around:.....pmsl -the very places that some folk are moaning about not being able to purchase religious cards in.

I know if I was that religious: I'd be purchasing my from local chapel/church etc - ensuring that the big racketeers weren't getting any profits - but it all going to the faith in which I place my trust!

Indeed, capitalism is far too huge in society today and I find that a shame. Such a trival matter but the Price of Freddo's is a huge indication of money grabbing at it's finest. I find it so wrong that big compaines can make such huge profits and the poor get poorer.

I know many people do not prefer to buy from their local because it is more expensive. Why? Because the big supermarkets sell items at ""cheap" prices with sneaky profits. So wrong.

As a lover of Freddos - sadly, I am inclined to agee.

Complain that you can't find enough religious cards amongst their selection of Christmas cards?

Choose not to purchase anything from them in the first instance: shop at your local high street shops, local farms, local markets? Plenty that can be done if a person really wants to take the moral high ground - most of us don't though.

Tbh there are only a couple of 'oldies' I send cards to..the rest is all emails and Ecards....imo the volume of cards sent at Christmas is far more damaging to the environment than it is to morality
