I'm with you on the rest though. Repentance and redemption are rather integral to Christianity, after all.


The commercialism of Christmas is proof in it's self that it's not just a Christian holiday anymore. Almost everyone celebrates it the world over. I have Jewish friends and atheistic family that celebrate Christmas. That's part of the reason that I agree with Palatine about hating everything about it. Where's the "peace on earth and good will toward men" when people are beating the shit out of each other for Black Friday sales?

Um, he disliked all things Christmas? Craig - 24/12/2010 05:20:41 PM 386 Views
Ah. I've never heard of this fellow. That's why I asked. So, where do I find him? *NM* Palatine - 25/12/2010 05:13:53 PM 145 Views

That's a reason to reclaim Christmas, not disown it. Joel - 23/12/2010 08:31:07 PM 388 Views
Do I understand you correctly? Palatine - 24/12/2010 05:17:03 PM 368 Views

What, you'd rather it remained a Bronze Age pagan fertility rite? Joel - 27/12/2010 11:17:09 PM 461 Views
That's kinda funny because Christ wasn't born in December. Good one! *NM* Dark Knight - 23/12/2010 01:53:37 AM 215 Views
