Starbucks is made of people.
Is there anything else to say?!
Christmas will always be Christmas whether you do or do not buy a paper cup!
Christmas is still Christmas if the cup has Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Merry Kwanzaa, or Feliz Navidad!!!
See, God still sent His Son Jesus... whether it is on a cup or not.
He did that because He loves us. He sent His Son to be the payment for all the wrong in the world!
He did that because He wants us to LOVE and to be LOVED!!
So walking into ANY place of business and playing a "prank" on them because they don't believe the same as you... well to be frank, is just wrong... and really stupid.
I'm not trying to insult ANYONE.
I just think we need to be really careful.
So let me sum up...
I LOVE Jesus! I think Christmas is AMAZING!!
And I love people. So here's a twist... let's be nice!
I think we have MUCH bigger issues to address! Did you know that November is National Adoption Month/ Orphan Care Month?!
Did you know that MILLIONS of children are sleeping cold, hungry and alone? And we are fighting over paper cups?!
So before you walk into Starbucks and LIE ('cause that's not wrong at all!!) saying that your name is Merry Christmas just so someone who works there knows where you stand on the topic... Why not smile at them... Thank them for what they do... and when you leave, encourage them to have a great year?
