I think the colour of the Starbucks cup is the 11th commandment. But I am not real big on the Old Testament so I could be wrong.
some interpret their book as saying having no idols leviticus 26-1. to not pray in public. matt6-5.
that's the problem with your rules / laws for living coming from a book that hardly any 2 people can agree on it's interpretation.
Common sense and logic should be your fall back approach all the time.
I think they call that "communion." I drop by for it sometimes. Only place you can get a drink on Sunday morning hereabouts.
Hint: when the give you the cup of wine and say "The blood of Christ," you're supposed to say "Amen," not "Cheers."
maybe starbucks and coca cola are in cahoots. and they're combing their efforts to sabotage christmas for christians because they want to promote santa. and it's all a capitalistic ploy to cash in on colour red which they have covertly trademarked?
and a cracker
and a cracker
When I was a kid mom made us go to the Mormon church. Sacrament was on Saturday afternoon and they;d pass out bread and water. Mormons cain't tolerate booze I guess.
Honest to goodness, don't use that fake flavor crap, it's poison marketed as a foodstuff. Want the best French Vanilla coffee/cappuccino you can make at home? Put a dollop or so of actual French Vanilla ice cream in your coffee. I've turned a few people on to that, of course now they "hate" me :lol:
Why? Because they don't call those little wafer snack things "crackers"?
As for the thread topic, go figure, Christian evangelists getting worked up over a lack of snowflakes and reindeer. Yeah, because that's what Christmas is all about, snowflakes and reindeer. Hell, half of the US doesn't see or barely sees any snow all winter, never mind during the Christmas season.
And finally, they are a private company. People will vote with their wallets on this one. We'll see next year how it worked out for them.
Churches should become private companies or start serving coffee and sugar and salt and paying taxes. Since that group is about 50M strong and they have some weird leaders they could get quite dangerous. Luckily they tend to be followers rather than thinkers.
I'd love to but me and ice cream don't get along anymore. Does sound good though
ummm, wasn't it an evangelist the other day was tellin me
he doesn't do christmas, easter or halloween...
PAGAN institutions all sez he
plz note
the word evangelist contains the word "angel" which has the root word AN
a sumerian god...
WW2, what 50, 60, 70, million christians killed each other for to see who collects the taxes
and it ain't always CHRISTIANS collecting from christians and spending it on christians
( germany was 96 percent christian then and of course bolshevics are NOT christians, but the proletariat were, as were most of the allied countries' troops)
and if you are afraid the war on christmas will wreck christmas, don't you worry:
just look at what the war on drugs and the war on poverty and the wars on terror have done for those items
sky's the limit baby
PS
ask sanity claws for a coffee grinder
or if your santa lives in the cheap seats
a sippy cup, any color you like
and of course
TAX the churches
fix cliffy's picture

Not only should those bloody scrooges at Starbucks start getting into the Christmas spirit a bit more along with the 93% of Americans, 97% of Britons and around 50% or so of all of humanity which celebrates it (at least when Christmas actually starts approaching, because we're only on 10th November) but Starbucks in Britain should start paying taxes.

Why, so you can give the money to Muzzies? No, thanks, we'll leave that to the stupid.
Because they should. People are, quite frankly, getting fed up of big organisations like Starbucks not paying taxes in Britain.
I don't know what the income is but they've paid ZERO taxes, something which has angered many in Britain and the European Commission and it's getting beyond a joke.
And Starbucks isn't the only one doing this.
So, do you think you should personally pay taxes whether you've had any income or not?
Brits are natural-born dupes.
