Christmas has been getting flak from all sides this year. Conservative Christians think it’s too secular or “multiculturalized”; secularists think it’s too religious, or they make what they seem to think is the devastating point that Jesus was probably not actually born on December 25th; “radical” Christians think Christmas is too sentimental or commercialized; liturgical nit-pickers complain that Christmas has eclipsed Advent; and no one–at least no one in the commentariat–seems to be actually enjoying it.
Which is why you should read Marvin’s post. (Actually, the accompanying graphic alone is worth the visit.)

I think you just de-Grinched me for the year with a single post and a link. Thanks! My family will appreciate it.
