I understand where he is coming from. Christmas has become too commercialized. But Christmas is what you make of it. It CAN be a time for doing good things for others less fortunate et al Zwibbs post. The only problem I have with it is it would be awful hard to explain to my 5 and 6yr old if I was a parent.

I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% how I react to it.

When one considers the fact that the Puratains forbade the Winter Celebrations in the new world for many many years, I think it's nothing more than religious right wing propoganda.
Study History. REAL history... not the watered down, versions.

I saw an act of faith today. A man was on his knees, not in a pew in a Church, but in a garden planting seeds. ~~Unknown

Just adds to the commercialism. It looks like he's up on a telephone pole pointing with his hands reminding us there is a Walmarts this-a-way and one that-a-way.

Theres ways of getting your point across and then there are ways of getting your point across.
That isn't the way either in either case.

Ah! The foreigners put on such airs
Wearing the tangerine suits
And their harlequin eyes.
The pain they inspire
Draws in harmonica melodies
And the feathers of birds
Which flame up at their touch.
It all comes to light in the sheer
Debonair.
