The cup controversy is ridiculous. Attacking all Christians over it as "Ellen" did on her show is also ridiculous and offensive. I won't buy her products or watch her show.

Sad situation all the way around.

What did she say?

She attacked ALL Christians ... or just the ones with faux outrage?

I've googled it several ways and got nothing.

I think if she had done it, certain sites would be ablaze with the news, a gotcha moment.

ITA.

If the OP can provide some evidence that Ellen attacked ALL Christians, I would be happy to look at that evidence. Otherwise this is just another example of zealotry.

You mean to tell me that's NOT the Blessed Mother?????

I LOVE saying MERRY CHRISTMAS to those I LOVE and those who LOVE me say it back.  That's all that matters.

AND.....I'm not going to *worry* about any one else's religion or lack thereof.

That said, I think everything they sell su(ks Only 1% of their products are organic.  What does that say about the other 99% of crappachino they sell and people are drinking.

Lisa, you can't be serious.  Here is the youtube video of how Ellen handled this.  Now let's all go get some of those Starbucks Holiday Vision glasses:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TJyfQS3Pb9g

Ellen was poking gentle fun at folks who are outraged over the red cup.  She said the old cups had snowflakes, Santa's sleigh, elves - "you know, all the things that are in the Bible."   Why not laugh at yourselves; life's too short to take so seriously.  And please continue to buy ED On Air products.

Hey! She called (jokingly) the new cups "Satan Sippers." What? She must have heard me say he could be on my cup, and as long as he doesn't take a sip, who cares? 

The monologue today wasn't nearly as funny as this one which is hilarious (also about Starbucks). Enjoy!

Thanks!  Several of us have been saying the same thing... none of those things have anything to do with Jesus.

I so agree with you, ValuSkr!

I found myself laughing out loud at her jokes.
