I have a feeling..that the nonreligious christmas was created by corporations to make us buy stuff. I mean even in the christmas songs. It's like a commercial. I heard a piece of a song and it said ".....it's the most wonderful time of the year"....To my ears all the christmas songs about rudolph and presents and santa...they all seem like a commercial. Good advertising message so that we go and shop for gifts. It's like saying "go and shop for gifts and you will find yourself in this wonderful christmas world" "Don't buy and your kids will be disappointed in you"
So people do actually feel like they have to go and buy christmas Gifts to make people happy.

Yea, you've got to hand it to the folks in marketing - they must be doing their job(s) because whatever they're doing it is working for them. I went searching for Christmas and it's true meaning and found it is still alive and well, even though there is a lot of commercialism around these days. I have found that you just have to sincerely look for the true meaning of Christmas, and you shall find it.

At least I am not the only one who has noticed the subliminal message of Christmas that tells you ( Buy, buy, buy, and buy ). Christmas has lost its meaning to a majority of people.

-American commercialism rears its ugly head. The true spirit of CHRISTmas is all but gone.
