    Christmas from my perspective
    This holiday is just a big cash grab by retailers, and women fall for it everytime.

    Personally, I would just give cash to everyone, because I know that people dont need more garbage in their homes. My wife has to buy crap for people. Stuff is cheaper and cheaper and they can just buy this crap themselves.

    This holiday is stupid.

    You Jewish bro? Jews seem to hate Christmas.
    Jew at my brothers work complained about the Christmas tree in the front lobby of his office, got it taken down.

    I agree with you about it being a big retail cash grab. But it doesn't have to be if you don't let it.

        I like Christmas because I can spend time with my immediate family. I've never understood the materialism that went along with it though so we limit what we buy and what we spend. Not because we couldn't afford more but it's just crazy to spend money for no reason on a certain date.

        As for extended relatives etc Christmas = Buy some shit for people you don't care about so they can hate it but tell you it's great.

                people are scared to death about what people will think if they don't buy them a present every year. it gets harder and harder to find something and tougher than ever to find your way into a store just to appease the merchants who incessantly blare commercials at you to go spend your money for a bunch of crap. for what to celebrate a fairy tale characters birthday. yes, it's for women and kids who have little else in their lives but to celebrate this glorious day. ever notice that on dec. 26 nobody even mentions it. subconsciously they are so glad it's over. my favorite day of the year is 12/26. throw the damn tree out on that day and you will be happier.

                      Im not a jew. Just someone that hates Christmas. The religious stuff and spending time with families is fine.

                        Christmas isn't really a Christian holiday anyway. Just a Catholic spin on the Winter Solstice celebration season. I am a Christian but it's pretty funny to listen to people talk about Christ being born on December 25. And then they think the way to celebrate is to go buy toys made by slave labor in China.

                        Silent Night, Holy Night. Hahahahahaha.

                          For some people its also a time of religious significance.

                            I'm leaving in an hour to take my 3 hour stint as a bell ringer at the SA red kettle at Wal-mart......I'm taking a more quiet approach this season, afraid some broke guy might bust me in the chops. I know I can't donate big money, so I figure my time is worth something

                                Nothing wrong with America...

                                That is why it is the greatest Nation EVER...

                                The problem is you dumbfukks that bring your idiotic ideas in from your 3rd world countries and think you are smart...

                                You are not smart, either learn from us or go back where your ancestors came from...

                                  Couple of years ago I didnt bother with a tree or decorations - I lived on my own and was visiting my folks for Christmas Day itself, before having to work the nightshift, so I didnt see the point in going through the hassle of putting up and taking down the decorations really. Pretty sure I wouldnt have any up this year either if my sister wasnt staying at mine and insited we put them up (I say we, I mean she put them up!).

                                  Dont get me wrong, I am not anti-christmas or anything - but at the same time, it is just no big deal for me either.

                                  We have never been a religious family, so there is no religious meaning to christmas for me, and I am lucky in that I do see my family on a regular basis as we always try to get together on Sundays for dinner if possible, and usually we go to the pub for a few drinks on friday evenings as well.

                                  Its not a miserly or scroogly thing either as I am always happy to give presents to my family, and to be honest I dont even want or need anything in return either - I just find the whole thing as a bit of an anti climax and just dont see the fuss really.

                                    Christmas is for children and honestly if you don't have any, you're right. It's a dumb holiday. Unless there is something really special you want to get someone that they weren't thinking of or can't find...then xmas has meaning. Don't get me wrong since i loved xmas as a child you can't deny this holiday season has some magical feel to it.

                                    But i concur and im' sorry but i want a diamond necklace, i want clothes, i want this and that...when you can simply go out and get it yourself?...falls between selfish and mind-numbing. Also, if you have a wish list of things you could get on any given day but then go and spend 300-500 on worthless shit for other people...you just essentially bought the crap you were to je- cheap to get yourself.

                                                        Jews don't dislike Christmas...we just hate the idiots who ask us why WE don't put up a tree and stupid lights on our house.

                                                        Our neighbors ask every year, no matter how many times we say it...."I get the whole Jewish thing and all, but why not just celebrate Christmas"

                                                          You need to change your perspective. Christmas is not about gifts and expenses. It's about the miracle of your life being saved from hell because somebody came one night two thousand and eleven years ago. =)

                                                                You're kidding right? It's not the Jewish people who complain about the endless lights and trees and commercials and the awful music on the radio.....it's the atheists and others. I'm sure there are a few that might but as a whole.....not at all.

                                                                It's simple...Jews do not HATE Jesus or any of the Holidays his followers celebrate that sync with Jewish Holidays...i.e. Christmas and Easter.....we do not hate the dude, we just don't give him or Catholics or Scientologists or Wiccans any thought. It's like saying I dispise either the Harvard or Yale team in that rivalry.....I don't watch Ivy League sports so I'm indifferent

                                                                Apparently you are pissed off over it...I'm making a light hearted comment man. This is why we don't try and recruit or convert anyone who wants to just hop on board at the Synagogue.....too much drama and wasted time arguing over Jesus vs Allah vs Mother Earth and who's gonna burn here or there if they do not do this or that.

                                                                Celebrate Christmas all you want pal...wear one of the reindeer sweaters and drink egg nog with Jim Beam in it til you pass the hell out....more power to ya...just don't knock on my door and sing me songs about how my King has come, all thee I sing and the rest of the songs and then get mad when I politely decline to participate.
