A male nurse at one of my doctors and I were talking about the shopping madness that surrounds Christmas. He told me what he and his wife do for their three children and I was impressed. He said they buy each child three gifts; something they want, something they need and something in remembrance of Christmas.


And that is PERFECT. What a wise man

Interesting article. Kinda jaded, but a few good points. Missing the main point, tho , of the war on Christians and their holidays. I've long thought that all the movies and etc that have been put out about Christmas gifts being the point are propaganda. For instance the old movie from the 30s I think about the young married couple where she sold her hair to get him a watch fob for his dad's watch and he sold his dad's watch to get her a clip for her beautiful hair. The main point of Christmas is coming together to celebrate hope and joy for humanity because of Jesus. The insane shopping part is all propaganda. But sitting around and drinking and not acknowledging the "reason for the season" is also b.s. Being "offended" by nativity scenes is simply hubris.

Kevyn has just put the icing on the cake. He is humorless & miserable and only interested in dispensing his misery to others.

Very, very true. People like him just suck the air out of a room. Could you imagine a seasonal (I won't call it Christmas so as not to offend them) party with Maxine Waters, Joy Behar, Jim Acosta, and Stephen Colbert and the other prominent liberals on the scene?

That sounds like a nightmare. I would much rather spend the day cleaning out goat barns than spend it with that group of slime, and the goats smell better and carry on better conversations.

So did I. I have shared it with many parents and they, too, see the wisdom in this. Unfortunately our own children were grown and had their own children when first I heard. Grandma and I furnish the gifts in remembrance of the season every Christmas.

You either live in an alternate universe from the one I live in, or you are such an angry bitter person that no one wants to be near you because they are afraid that you, much like a blood sucking leach, will suck all the joy out of everyone near you. My world is one of friends who share in joy and sorrow, assist each other when needed, and provide a shoulder to cry on once in a while.


AMEN & AMEN brother Merry Christmas and Happy New Year !!!!!!
