Somebody please tell me this is made up.
 
isn't the 1st commandment “You shall have no other gods before Me." like 5 places before thou shall not kill? Where did you find this anyway?

Where else? Facebook!

I'm not sure what having no other God has to do with saying Merry Christmas.

Looked legit to me, but what do I know? The logic he used didn't rise to the level of qualifying as logic, however. But, he has the right to think, say, and believe whatever he wants.

Oh, and Merry Christmas to everyone, and I hope the guy in the video has an especially wonderful Merry Christmas.

well i don't know who that little fellow is..... but basically, muslims beleive in jesus so its not uncommon for them to say "merry christamas" or even celebrate it, but saying that jesus is the son of god and celebrating gods birth is kind of the point of christmas, since muslims don't beleive jesus was the son of god its technically blashpemous to celebrate christmas, because it implies theres more than one god, also Christmas is the feast of saturnalia a pagan festival

these guys are like the WBC of the muslim world, their full of nonsense. Plenty of muslims (especially in christian countries) celebrate christmas even decorate their houses with christmas lights jesus is their prophet too!

YouTube is for entertainment but not as good for actual facts because anyone can post anything, true or not, on the site. Verify anything you see there or understand it may very well be BS.

it's not made up...that's what buddy believes ... to me it sounds like some Muslim was arguing with him about offering a merry christmas greeting and saying someone with a better understanding than him said his wishing someone a merry christmas was fine

buddy in the video does not support that view and probably thinks in a very right leaning way...*who cares*

merry christmas
 
I like xmas because of its scandinavian pagan history.
 
Weird. Muslims believe in Jesus. That video makes it sound like his issue is by saying Merry Christmas you are celebrating a false religion because Jesus wasn't actually born on Dec 25th.
 
He used two terms with which I was unfamiliar. I can't spell them either, but I was pretty sure he was identifying two codified sins.
 


Sorry, I had to do it this way. I tried looking for it on youtube and I couldn't find it.


Yup. His issue is that 25 Dec isn't the real birthdate of Christ.......therefore Christians believe in a false religion.
He doesn't understand that it's not the actual birthday we're celebrating - it's the real meaning behind the birth of Christ - the Messiah has come.

Anyway, if someone doesn't know the actual day of his birth (due to non-existing records), does that mean he's not entitled to be feted?
He cannot decide on a date that would best suit him to make that as his "birth" date?
He doesn't get a birthday party, and greeting of Happy Birthday?


This kid is making an issue out of nothing.

Muslims don't believe in the Jesus of Christianity.

It's not December 25th Islam has a problem with, it's the diety of Jesus Christ. Muslims consider belief in rhe Trinity to be polytheism. And polytheism is a grevious sin in Islam, the sin of shirk. It is unforgivable.

But he used Dec 25 (Christmas) as his platform.

He is simply a poor communicator. The main problem is believing Jesus is God. If you listen, he says, "God was born on December 25th". The point being, god was born. He also mentions shirk, look it up.
