That is so sad.
Trying to shove aside this day marking the birth of Jesus Christ in exchange for a fabricated, phony non-holiday is like bypassing a table laden with roast beef, turkey, ham and all the trimmings, in order to pass out plastic food and pictures of dessert.
What a pathetic commentary on the paint-thin superficial meaninglessness that our uprooted culture seems so suicidally desperate to embrace.

Well put, although I suspect Festivus revelers have another motive--just another excuse to get drunk.

No, its just a funny sitcom joke that's become a theme for funny holiday parties.
To assert that Festivus has any deeper meaning denies the very spirit of Festivus.

Christmas and Festivus have exactly equal status as man-made, unBiblical holidays.

It's a JOKE!
Maybe somebody will be handing out senses of humor for Christmas this year.
