Subject: RE: BS: De-Christianizing Christmas
He is young, he will probably mellow in later years!! To me, the wonderful thing about December is the diversity of celebrations that are taking place. All the religions seem to be celebrating something and if people look hard enough they will see how the celebrations mingle. I love folklore and this is a wonderful time of year where people can reflect on their heritage and appreciate those of others.

As for the money, you are right!!! It seems to be how much you spend and the thought behind why you are giving a gift is lost. But that is another thread!!!

As you mentioned though, it is fun. That is the thought that everyone needs to remember, no matter how they celebrate! Enjoy!!!!
