That’s cool. I don’t have a problem with that but as you said you are one in a million. I am sure your kids are very well balanced (as most FREEPERS kids are as I can imagine). It just saddens me that we are getting all kinds of people wanting to celebrtate Christmas differently than it used to be. For example, soon stores will be open on Christmas day. After that the slope will continue down until eventually it will be a work day. That day will hopefully come after I am six feet under. I am only 38 and see the changes to Christmas already in that short amount of time.

What comes around goes around. There's nothing new under the sun. Those Christian Americans who wouldn't have been caught dead observing Christmas were probably just as dismayed when Christmas became prominent and not just a minor Catholic holiday.
