Christmas is a celebration of the birth of Christ so what's with this
'merry' crap?
The Online dictionary definition:
mer·ry
adj. mer·ri·er, mer·ri·est
1. Full of high-spirited gaiety; jolly. 2. Marked by or offering fun
and gaiety; festive: a merry evening. 3. Archaic Delightful;
entertaining.
4. Brisk: a merry pace.
It seems to me this 'merry' Christmas crap is just another way for
non-believers to take over and marginalize the true meaning of
Christmas. It seems to me Christ's birth should be celebrated with
solemn thanks to our Lord for giving his only begotten son that those
who believe in Him may have everlasting life.
Getting drunk on spirits and getting bloated on too much food is
debauchery. Is it proper to gives thanks to the Lord's ultimate
sacrifice by engaging in sinful behavior? Making Christmas all about
human vices seems to me to be very antithetical, blasphemous and sinful
and no way to get to Heaven.
You just HATE Christmas.
