xterm not loading xresources properly

I was not able to figure out the flaws in my .xinitrc file which causes .Xresources not to load. The respective .xinitrc

#!/bin/bash

[[ -f ~/.Xresources ]] && xrdb -merge -I$HOME ~/.Xresources

exec startxfce4

I've read the wiki and posts out there, nothing seems to solve the issue...

The .Xresources file

#define _background #272822
#define _color8 #303030

#define _foreground #d0d0d0
#define _color9 #ff0090

#define _color2 #66AA11
#define _color10 #80FF00

#define _color3 #c47f2c
#define _color11 #ffba68

#define _color4 #30309b
#define _color12 #5f5fee

#define _color5 #7e40a5
#define _color13 #bb88dd

#define _color6 #3579A8
#define _color14 #4eb4fa

#define _color7 #9999AA
#define _color15 #ffffff

Re: xterm not loading xresources properly

Have you tried without the defines?  Have you tried with XTerm instead of xterm, or just `*color0` etc?
