They start playing christmas music the day after Thanksgiving?
That Thanksgiving gets comparatively short shrift, as a holiday?
That Thanksgiving isn't a huge, overcommercialized holiday?
- Is it because we don't give presents?
- Is it because we don't feel compelled to put up decorations like christmas?
- Is it because it's actually a Christian holiday, rather than only nominally so?
Why is it christmas that everyone (practically speaking) loves dearly, regardless of what they think of Jesus?
Christmas junk has been in stores since August.
Something possesses non-christians to have a "christmas spirit;" and when I look around, it's not the Holy Spirit.
Why is it that christmas with all its appurtenances is pretty much exactly what I would expect a worldly holiday to be, other than the fact that Christians love it? This smacks of a horrible deception to me, and it's not the non-Christians who are deceived. They know that christmas is all about the presents and the tree and the food.
