The Christmas bash
Perhaps it is time for another look at this maligned festival?
Christmas bashing is a historical habit. The reason for the season is under attack as the root of Christmas is questioned once again – whether it be Christian or pagan. It is argued that Jesus’ birthday wasn’t celebrated in the Bible. I wonder, did someone forget to mention it to the angels, the shepherds, and the star-gazing guys from the East that eventually showed up, that they shouldn’t be making a fuss about the birth of the Saviour? “God never told us to remember Jesus’ birth, only His death”, is another reason for ditching the season, and, “Jesus wasn’t born in December anyway”.
