To be Merry, or not to be.......
That is the question.......
Ok, blah blah blah. I mean, come on....I am sick and tired of Christmas.....*waits for all the Christians to come to, from fainting at such a blastphmous statement*..............................
Yeah, I said it. I am sick and tired of the whole Christmas season....I really wish that it would just disappear.
Now, first of all, this is being said by a person who has grown up knowing that Christmas was just a day and it could be cancelled, and it was, more than Christmas was on. Yes, I said cancelled. When I was growing up, my mom would cancel Christmas because I wasnt doing as well in school as she would desire, but really......Thats not my point.
You have people who are freaking out because certain stores decided to not say "Merry Christmas" and instead say "Happy Holidays" and from what I have heard, these certain people have decided to deficate in their pants because of this *coughoreily*
Now, I am not going to say that Bill O'Reily is an ass. Nor am I going to say that he is a genius. Some of what he says, I think is right on. Some of what he says makes me want to run my car off the road and end it all now.....
And now everyone has decided that Christmas is such an important season that we need to trample upon everyone else..........We have to fight each other for presents. And thats whats the most important thing, PRESENTS!!!!!!!
How many years have I had to warp reality so that I wouldnt be pittied? As a child, all my friends would brag about all the cool shit they got while I had to wait til my mom was either over whatever she was pissed off at me for, at the time, or if I had gotten good enough grades to get my crappy presents. And they were. They were not stuff that I wanted, nor stuff that I needed. But then again, this is only a part of why I am so resentful of this "Oh Joyous Time"
How many times have you heard that chipper, high pitched voice say, in a sing song voice, "He is the reason for the season"!........ Uh...Reality check here, Its a friggin Pagen holiday!!!!! Sad thing is, if 75% of the Christians out there, realized that the Christmas that we worship was based upon a Pagen ritual for the Winter Solstace, they would stain their drawers and probably petition congress to discontinue the celebration of Christmas, let alone the over-done or unthoughtful and menial decorations of their trees. I mean, a Pagen holiday? Halloween, a pagen holiday.
Now, I have said this before. Why is it that a season has to be a cause for us to focus our eyes upon the Lord and Savior? The hypothitical "Santa knows when your sleeping..." blah blah blah. Why not be honest? Santa, is mommy and daddy and its a freakish way to control your kids.....(Ok, no I dont believe that, I know it is Christ........and mommy and daddy)
Ultimately, I am sick and tired of hearing of how this season is so great, when the fact of the matter is, they claim to worship Christ on this day, yet worshiping Christ is not a one day celebration, its a lifetime of celebration HIM. Ok, yes, He is the spiritual reason for this season, but I really wish more people would understand that every friggin day, is a celebration for HE was the one who beat death. HE was the one who created this earth.
In reality, its difficult for me, to watch these rich assholes, roll around in their BMW's, throwing cash around like its nothing, and all these damned comercials. KAY jewelry......
How many children in the United States go without a Christmas? How many children through out the whole world go with out Christmas?
Dont know? Go find out.
While you are doing that, think about the meaning of Christ's Birth while your at it. I know it sure as hell does not mean free presents..........

It is true that there are many unthinking things said this time of year. I hope me and my friends will be able to do a few things to help the poor with some gifts and some help at the Salvation Army on Christmas, but there is always so much more help needed out there.
I hope you find some measure of peace and joy over the holidays dude. This can't be an easy time of the year.
I totally feel ya, bro. I remember when I first realized that Christmas is a joke to most people. It was when I saw the word "X-mas" for what it truly was. They "X"ed out Christ! How much more obvious can they be?!
All our holidays are pagan calendar days except Fourth of July and New Years. The truth is, Americans need an excuse to gather together as a family because normally they are so self-absorbed in capitalism.
This world is sick and getting sicker so I don't blame you for your attitude. It is always good to remember the poor and I hope you take your frustration and be the change you want to see.
Unfortunately I have to spread myself thin over three family gatherings. This is when the matriarchs get as much attention as they can all year, and I'm happy to give it. All they gotta do is feed me. :)
Don't let the b.s. get ya down for too long, bropea. None of it matters...it's just mankind full of himself trying to survive without Truth, that is Jesus. It will always look as pathetic as ancient peoples burning their children alive for a giant stone statue. Mankind was made for so much more...
Christ in us is the ONLY hope of glory. amen
