Please don't even try. In case you haven't noticed, the whole world that celebrates Christmas has lost the true meaning. Just stay the course and keep being a brat. You will be fine. Some day your children will be brats too. It will make you feel good that you raised them right. Who even knows what the true meaning of Christmas was. People would think that you were crazy if you practiced it anyway. They would want to put you in a nuthouse. You are normal just the way you are. Just keep blah-blahing your way through life and everyone will be happy.

I love Christmas. But it is way to commercialized. The true meaning has been lost in gifts. It should be a celebration of the birth of our Savior. Merry Christmas everyone !!

Christmas in this day in age is weird coming from a 14 year old im sick of it. I mean come on people getting offended by the saying "Merry Christmas",Santa saying "ho ho ho" and being made to slim down becuase its a bad influence on obese children.
I do think the commercials are very stupid this year the DUH commercial is plain retarded the cell phone one and all the other ones with joy to the world, back in 2000 or whatever youd here jingle bells or something else now its any song that wont offend losers who get offended by it. Overall the main goal for people against our tradition is getting rid of the true meaning of Christmas and that is Jesus Christ....
Hope this helps some have a !MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Sadly, I do agree with the idea that Xmas has become too commercialized and lost its original meaning. In some aspects, Xmas is still traditional in the sense that people still get together, go to church, and open gifts. However, the younger generations are not grasping the original concept of celebrating Xmas and its kind of sad and pathetic. Its no longer satisfying to spend Xmas with family and open gifts, but now its completely blown out of proportion. Now when people think of christmas, they think of gifts and shopping. Hopefully, we can get some sense knocked back into us and return to the xmas that we once used to enjoy. I'm not saying it stinks now, but I see that we vlue gifts more than the time we spend with the people we care about.

Yes it has & a lot of it has to do with all this PC b/s going on today. There are still a lot of us out here that haven't lost the true meaning of Christmas. As long as we remember how we were raised when it comes to Christmas.....the heck with the PC people. Merry Christmas everyone!!!

What do you do to stay in touch with the true meaning? Do you attend church services, a Sing-a-Long Messiah, volunteer, be a secret Santa, donate? Do you take time out of your ordinary to contemplate the extraordinary? Do you let the commercialization control you, motivate you, push you along throughout the season? You can find the true meaning--are you trying?

yeah I remember when I was a kid I would get so many present that when I got to my grandparents I couldn't remember one thing I had opened when someone asked me what I got for Christmas! I would be like 'uh I got this outfit' and whats so sad is I do the same thing! except I start letting my kids open a present a day 4 days before Christmas so they can start playing with some of them!

It is almost like our economy depends on it. The funny thing is that most of the people I come in contact with say they have less to actually spend on Christmas but it doesn't stop them because they are almost expected to run up the credit cards during the Winter. I will admit it doesn't apply to me, I don't have a family.

Christianity has been taken from Christmas so as not to offend non Christians whilst multinationals use it as a marketing tool to manipulate our children into bleeding us dry over the festive period,and our neighbors competing to have the best lights or best tree, the spirit of Christmas has gradually been eroded because of both

No I do not. I would add more details but I am on my way to a Santa impersonator concert. My three wisemen image on a hot crossed bun just netted me over 350 dollars on e-bay. Oh yes. I do believe in the miracle of Christmas.
