On the tail end of October, Starbucks released their 2015 holiday cup. This year the cup is red, simplistic, to represent and honor all religions in America. Although, this may seem like a smart move, this red cup triggered anger amongst Christians who believe that Starbucks maliciously removed all "Jesus" related decorations. Some Christian "social media personality" challenged offended Christians to rub Jesus in other people's face, which if you ask me, doesn't sound very Christian, in fact it sounds childish.
I think this point of view is so so so stupid and if this really pisses you off, go find another coffee shop!!!!!! This article represents the concept of Freedom of Religion in America and the controversy of acceptance and diversity and how SOME people value other cultures other than their own lame ass point of view.
It really is childish that some Christians think that they have a right to exclude all other religious festivities from their coffee. Their basically getting angry because a chain coffee shop won't celebrate the same holidays as them... That's just stupid.

Oh no, a holiday cup wants to be inclusive for all coffee drinkers. Tolerance. Tolerance is bad, m'kay.
ReplyDeleteThese morons just can't accept the fact that Christian oppression in the United States IS NOT REAL. They need to get over themselves.

The fact that people are making such a big deal about this is so unnecessary. There are people in poor countries who don't even have access to fancy coffee drinks. Maybe should be worrying about that rather than a "non-jesus" coffee cup.
