Re: Philosophy of Xmas
[ QUOTE ]
Does anyone else get pissed off that Christmas is such a big holiday? Im not religious and neither is anyone in my family, so why do we celebrate it every freakin year. Like I asked my dad about 3 years ago...
Me "Dad why not celebrate Chaunaka this year?"
Dad "We arent Jewish."
Me "So then why do we celebrate Christmas?"
Dad "Good point lets ask your mom."
Neither of us like this holiday and think it is completely fake. Seeing how it is supposed to be a religious holy day but is more about a fat man in a red suit. If you are religious I understand the gift giving concept; but why give some many why not just give your children 3 gifts each? One from each of the wisemen, this will turn it into more of a religious holiday like it should be for you.
Sorry for the rant but I have already had it up to my neck with christmas songs.
