christmas can't be too comercial
withotu it being comercial it isnt christmas
anyway, its officially christmas now because i saw the christmas cocacola advert the other day

[///James///]

thats how i tell its xmas too, the coca cola add, always have!

ive seen it for about 2 weeks tho

[redcar]

omg i luv the coca-cola add
"holidays are coming holidays are coming......."

but i think that sometimes its just gettin too commercial when i see people getting too wrapped in trying to buy loads of presents and everything getting stressed out. cause i know for me Christmas has become less about the presents and more about the family.

[Whisper]

I hate christmas
its always been nothing but drunk alcoholics
Huge fights
objects flying everywhere
cops comming over

I love Christmas and it is a very commercial holiday, but I do believe that the religious element is still there and I don't think it will go away.

I saw news from black friday and this lady fell and got trampled and she was putting on her wig, it was quite funny.

2005 years . . is it that hard to remember how many years weve been celebrating christmas?!

[serial-thrilla]

actually it ahsnt been that long, research has found Jesus was not born on 0AD, so put that in your pipe and smoke it!

[Ravenous]

But did Jesus even exist? I say no.

[redcar]

i defo think he existed, no question about that.

[Maestro]

It is definitely too commercial. Christmas is about presents. When I asked my little cousin why we celebrate Christmas, he said so Santa Claus can bring us presents. He had no idea about the religious aspect of it.

And also, Jesus had to grow up first. :roll: Silly Alex.

hope its not me your calling silly. but anyway Christianity was actually started with the birth of Christ and have been celebrating since his birth, because people knew him as the son of God then, hence why the shepards and kings were present and why King Herod went out to kill every new born boy.
