Merry Christmas Everyone!!
I just wanted to wish a Merry Christmas to the readers and their families. Things might be tough now for many of us, but hopefully things will get better next year.
READ this one !A squabble over a Christmas greeting has gotten a Florida woman fired In Panama City, Counts Oakes Resort Properties owner Andy Phillips issued an order for personnel to greet people by saying "Happy Holidays." Mat Staver of Liberty Counsel says Tonia Thomas, a devout Christian, asked for permission to say "Merry Christmas" instead.
"He said, 'No, you have to greet them with happy holidays.' She says, 'I just simply can't do that. That just goes against my religious beliefs to secularize Christmas in the time of this season,'" he explains. "And then he fired her on the spot."
She collected her purse as he was calling the police. "And then as she was leaving the property he said, 'Now we're going to have a merry Christmas. What about you, now that you no longer have a job?'" Staver adds.
Staver was asked if an employer has the right to fire an employee for insubordination if the employee refuses to comply with an order. "When an employee is told to do something and if they raise a religious objection to it and give a reasonable request for accommodation, the employer has to find out whether there is a reasonable way to accommodate that belief," he concludes.

Andcal, Hey buddy, I will check the link out now. Thanks.
Miles, I wonder if he would of had the guts to fire a Muslim for a similar reason. The woman needs to get in touch with this organization. http://islaminaction08.blogspot.com/2008/12/christians-are-you-offended-help-is.html
