It's really sad what Christmas has become. I'm not a man of God. I'm more a man of science so I'm not talking about the religious implications. However anymore it seems it's all about what you buy and how much you spend. You even have car companies getting in the act, suggesting if you really love her buy her a car. Or jewelry stores telling you to drop a grand on a diamond.In all this madness of black Friday and the constant pressure to spend spend spend....Isn't Christmas a day were we simply let those we love and care about know that they are appreciated and not taken for granted. Have we really gotten to the point that the measuring stick of how much someone means to you or how much you love someone is measured by how much you spend on them??? "Just a thought"

I say titties are titties.

On a more serious note, commercialism isn’t the only issue. Different sects or churches (or even political parties) have tried to hijack the concepts and methods of observing Christmas. I stopped playing “Keeping Up With the Christians” a long time ago(like I need a seasonal excuse to buy a big ticket item or to sacrifice a virgin (Winter Solstice reference);)

Christmas is never anything more or less than you allow yourself to believe. Christmas is in the heart, not under the tree.
