I recently returned from spending the Christmas Holidays in Australia and was amazed that there was absolutely no connect between Christmas and the birth of Christ. The only Christmas songs I heard were Jingle Bells and Here Comes Santa Claus. My daughter said it is the same with Easter, it is all about the Bunny.

Every year there's the now traditional war on Christianity at Christmas and Easter...yet it survives - but a bit more bruised and battered with each volley.

Wifey did the Catholic Good Friday thing yesterday, and the church was absolutely packed; but she did a head count, and out of well over a thousand people, there were maybe a dozen below age 40.
