First let me say as a Christian Jesus has nothing to do with christmas its merly a pagan Holiday the we celebrate. Jesus was born in the end of September beginning of October on the calculations of John the Baptists Birth. John and Jesus are six months apart by age leaving John to be born in March and Jesus being born in the fall this is one of the abominations the Lord is talking about idolatry christmas was MAN MADE

Christmas is a secular, commercialised celebration with very limited relevance to Christianity in this day and age.

Because Christmas is about capitalism, not religion. People love money more than anything.

America's economy is built on shopping. If American's stopped shopping, the economy would collapse. Notice how they were pleading with everyone to shop after Sept 11th? The boomers will be retiring soon, what will that do to your economy?
