Very good. Christmas is first and foremost about Christ, and it should be kept that way.
Please keep your religion out of our secular winter time holiday, thank you.
Is this thread not about Christmas?
Indeed it is. A holiday for families and friends to come together and exchange gifts, as overseen by a jolly old fat guy. You can keep all the boring stuff you were talking about, whatever it was, thank you.
This isn't about whether it's boring or not; Christmas is in all its intents a Christian liturgical feast. I celebrate the advent of snow, presents and mulled wine during European winter in a secular fashion, but to suggest that Christianity is not at the very heart of Christmas is absurd.
Hilfy, this is a troll thread. I only commented here to state that the celebration of the Wise Men bringing gifts to Jesus was a separate event/holy day. Lief's purpose here was to be mildly offensive, perhaps to lure Our Dear Friend back to The Update since the thread's inspiration was a BushOK Facebook post. Don't waste your time taking the bait and getting offended.
Poor Hifly. It must be so terrible for him to have a mildly offensive, controversial opinion thrown at him.
It might cause him an injury.
