I find this subject hilarious; people really believe that this particular holiday is the most sacred time of the year. Where in the Bible does it state that we must go into debt, lie to our children and get intoxicated? I must have missed that part. Here are some facts on this annual occasion .Suicide rates are the highest during the holidays than any other time of the year. Must be the guilt that idiot box programmed into you to buy everything your child wants even if you can afford it or not. DUI fatalities are the highest this time of year. Got to booze it up to forget about all the money you spent. Can you feel all the Christmas spirit? Shopping for anything is a nightmare, with all the rude people pushing and shoving to catch that special deal. Shoppers killing each other for a toaster or house slippers that Aunt Betty did not want in the first place. Then we get to the religious fanatics who argue every year to keep the nativity scene in front of the local abortion clinic. Does all this make you feel like celebrating? Bottom line is you should have the right to believe whatever you want, but you do not have the right to shove your beliefs down anybody else's throat. So during this so-called religious holiday keep your feelings of joy no matter what form or fashion to yourself. In addition, use some common sense if you have any.
