Oh and... holiday comes from "holy day" so why so upset about it... and Christmas IS a holiday...
you know, you are right, I apoligise, I didnt see the Hanukahh and Kwanzaa things listed at the bottom, thats crazy, that should also have its own tab, and then the rest of the stuff, should be listed under 'holiday' if they must.
Yes I agree with the term holy day but lets face it that isnt what it means today, its an excuse for a pig out and over excess on all levels and days off work to recover. In this house its one day as we work the rest.. retail trade, huh,, we work to feed everyone elses madness... or dont work and be on the dole. Great choice really, not. My point is that these days to most people (clearly not you) holy day and christmas have very little meaning and certainly not the real one

I thinkit would be lovely to have a thread on here for people to post their family christmas traditions, no matter what faith they are. It would do us all good to learn something new!
I again apoligise for being bigotted and not seeing below what I was looking for.
