With two weeks to go before Christmas, the infamous ‘War on Christmas’ is heating up. This probably won’t be my only post on the subject, though I find following this subject in the media tiresome. I even tried to tackle this last year, but got derailed by Newsweek taking advantage of the holiday season to pontificate about gay-marriage. You can check those posts out here if you so desire.
I read this article the other day and I agree with most of it. It’s hard to argue about “keeping Christ in Christmas” when our biggest concern is having the best decorations on the block or making sure our kids have the latest-greatest toys (or is it we who want the latest-greatest gadget?). At the same time our culture does us no favors and the politics that have worked their way into this debate are frustrating.
