Its the most commercialized time of the year

Merry Christmas!!!

Yeah, we know. 364 more days til Christmas and there's a 24 hour marathon of A Christmas Story on TBS. But it still leaves you a bit empty inside. The gifts you waited all year for aren't as great as you hoped, the people you gave that special gift to just aren't impressed as you hoped... So what? The greatest gift was given a couple thousand years ago.

Just just can't top Jesus. That's what the plain o' meaning of Christmas is. Jesus birth. Anything beyond that is either religious or secular hoohaw. Nobody said gifts need to be exchanged. Nobody said the house had to be draped in green, red, and thousands of angels.

Oh and don't get me started on the little kiddies believing in Santy Claws comin' round breaking into your house and leaving stuff. Guess its the best way to teach your kids life's not as great as they were raised to think and that lies are ok when mommy and daddy do it.

The commercialization of the season, in my opinion, should just get rid of the name Christmas alltogether. Call is Festivus for all I care. But seriously trying to take Christ out of Christmas is moronic. Take your crappy magic hootenanny and call it whatever you want. Leave Jesus and my eternal salvation out of it.
