The Irrelevant Religion
This blog is mostly tongue in cheek. Some of it may be informative. Please provide your feedback.
If you suffer from self-irrelevancy, please seek professional advice.
Hello. Are you ready for the holidays? If so, Season's Greetings!
Everyone of all religions will be celebrating in one form or another in these next few days. It really doesn't which religion you are. In fact, maybe atheists are celebrating too.
Santa Claus seems to spread over all religions. The best man at my wedding, who is Muslim, celebrates Santa gift giving. My people I know who have come to Canada are quick to get involved in the Santa Claus tradition.
For those who say, "Let's put Christ back in Christmas", let's analyze what's going on here. People are giving gifts to other people they like. People who steal at this time of year are named "Grinch". There is a sense of family at this time of year that doesn't seem to exist (unfortunately) at any other time. It all seems to be a feeling of good times and family to all people, irregardless of religion. Would Christ approve? I think so.
As a United Church person, I don't object to having to be politically correct at this time of year. However, I'm delighted people of all religions are getting along, at least in my part of the world.
Happy holidays to everyone!
Regards,
Irrelevant
