Are you more stressed at Christmas? Or less?

I hear horror stories about how people tend to be crabbier at Christmas, rushing around looking for gifts they can't find, and can't afford if they do find them. Road rage, crashing shopping carts, rudeness, high blood pressure, etc.

Is it true?

I've noticed just the opposite...but maybe that's just Canada...or maybe it's just me. I smile more, I yield more, I'm less stressed and more cheerful (if that's possible *rolling my eyes*). I have an irrepressible urge to make other folks' day just a little nicer. Spreading goodwill, if you will. And I've noticed that most people reciprocate most willingly. I strike up conversations in the grocery lines, I let people go ahead of me in traffic, I dish out a quarter when someone doesn't have one for their shopping cart, etc. And others do the same. So...in your experience, are people more stressed or less stressed at Christmas time?

In the bible, who came first Adam and Eve or the people from the land Nod?

Why is there so little information on this land? Was it created by another God or something?

What if some of the things we see as biblical unaccountability or god being unjust...?

....was really a part of god’s covert way to let’s people character dictate themselves before god.

I am an atheist, but for the sake of open-mindedness I want to present an argument that I think would make for a great progressive Christian point of view

Take these two examples of things that would otherwise make christianity’s moral reasoning seem suspect.

First let’s look at the issue of homosexuality..
suppose god dictated the sinfulness of homosexuality in his word in order to test how sympathetic a Christian’s heart could be. If you accepted god’s word that homosexuality was sin but still felt too much sympathy toward homosexuals to TOTALLY RAIL against the homosexual lifestyle, then your character has expressed itself as loving “unto the least of you” (quoting Jesus)
