Who thinks the forum should be closed for Christmas?

I think we should show respect to our gentile members by closing down the forum for Christmas. What do the rest of you think?

Absolutely not.  This is a Jewish forum.

I don't think so.  I doubt even Christian forums close down for Christmas.  Christmas isn't like a shabbat for them or anything.  If Christians want to come on the JTF forum and tell us how wonderful their Christmas is going, they can!
"The Jews will eventually have to face up to what you're dealing with here.  The arabs will never love you for what good you've brought them.  They don't know how to really love.  But hate!  Oh, G-d, can they hate!  And they have a deep, deep, deep resentment because you have jolted them from their delusions of grandeur and shown them for what they are-a decadent, savage people controlled by a religion that has stripped them of all human ambition . . . except for the few cruel enough and arrogant enough to command them as one commands a mob of sheep.  You are dealing with a mad society and you'd better learn how to control it."

There is no ruling against doing work on Christmas day, it's just custom, in fact, I may be online for a little while tomorrow.

It's a nice thought, with the best of intentions but completely unnecessary, it's Christmas, not the Sabbath.

And so, to our Dear Christian friends.

Merry Christmas!  :)

No, I don't think it should be closed!
However... I do think that we should be respectful to the Christian members on the forum and not Discount Christmas as just another goyim holiday.
Merry Christmas!!!  :)

I voted NO. Christian Holidays include rest, but only from real work. Christians are not requested to refrain from using a PC, turning a light on, cooking and so on. Ritual rest is only in Judaism, even more, a Gentile who does ritual rest is in danger according to Talmud.

   I like your response. I just want to make it a little more visible.
Does it bother you that you have to face the dome and the rock to say the sh'ma?
