Any ideas on getting cards without Christmas in?

er I think you means persons/people/ and those identifying as such

For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.’ (Matthew 25:25-36)

I'm afraid onestepbeyond betrays his or her lack of knowledge about Islam.

The Quran mentions Jesus many times, explains that Jesus was born of the Virgin Mary and is “high honored in this and the next world”. He is called Jesus son of Mary and referred to as “Spirit from God”, and a prophet messenger of God.

The only difference is that while Muslims accept that Jesus was a servant, teacher, and lover of God’s word they do not believe that he was divine or the son of God in the same way that they not believe that Muhammad was divine or the son of God. Both were men in the line of prophets which began with Adam.

onestepbeyond So people whose families have lived in this country since time immemorial but who choose not to be Christians should move? To where?
Do you seriously believe that you are showing any shred of Christian tolerance? How do members of your congregation feel about your views?
What a disgusting hypocritical post!
When I was teaching I very often had cards and presents from my Muslim pupils. They enjoyed Christmas (after all Jesus - Issa- is a prophet in Islam).
Equally I received little gifts, usually samosas and sweetmeats as Eid presents.
Drag yourself into the 21st century!

Sorry delibes. Crossed posts.

I think the post from onestepbeyond was a have on, hit and run online graffiti. He/she 'only does it to annoy because they know it teases'.

There’s a word for that only we are not allowed to use it on GN

and people always rise to the bait Monica!

I know, like many, it some times takes me several days to become suspicious.

I can't see the problem. Lots of cards just have Season's Greetings and then I have to write 'for a happy Christmas' underneath.

Blencathra, if the OP is still following this thread, she will soon be on complaining that you are rude for saying that, that's the response I got.

At the start despite lots of us saying that the kinds of cards she wanted were freely available, even providing links to websites, the lot, she just kept on saying she couldn't find cards without references to Christmas.

I then asked her to be specific about the exact kind of card she was looking for, if the sites and shops we suggested, were no use. Since then we haven't heard from her.

I am beginning to wonder whether Mabel12, when she started this thread was another of those OPs who when they start a thread 'only does it to annoy because they knows it teases'.

I`ve only just found this thread. MawB, please tell me where I can buy that card, I know so many people who would love it, lol!

I find locating Christmas cards with a religious theme or images is the real challenge.

Iam64, Christian bookshops obviously stock religious cards, as do Tesco, have also seen them in Wilkos.

Yes, I know that Billybob, the majority of cards on sale don't though. I realise we live in an increasingly secular society and that's ok with me.
