Christmas cards are losing their religious message
Not for me or my business and our family. A card from us wishes the recipent a Merry Christmas, and that's that. Christmas is a celebration of the birth of Christ, enough said. So if you don't believe in that then you don't celebrate Christmas so don't force us that do to ignore what it is our celebration is for. And Merry Christmas to all those friends out there that do!
