I get annoyed at the people who complain that American Christmas isn’t JUST about Christ.

It is for most of us.

But this is the USA...OF COURSE we incorporate other traditions.

Personally, I love to hear about quirky family traditions.

In my family....for one thing....when we open the presents....we ball up the wrapping paper and try to throw it and hit others in the head...
when they aren’t looking....

It’s TOTALLY STUPID...but it’s our tradition.

I want to know who Carol Ling is. And why is she “out in the snow”?

......”Once a year, there is a holiday ,that however imperfectly, commemorates the Incarnation of God into this sin “weary world”. It wouldn’t matter to us what month or day, because the Bible doesn’t give us the birthdate of Jesus. What matters is that “unto us a child is born, and unto us a son is given“.I love it.”......

Me too!
