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.

I get all testy because somebody has GOT to give the opposing view.

Just because some think they have the right to force their unholy
version of Christmas on me by wishing me a 'merry' Christmas and they
expect me to go along with their debasing the most important Christian
celebration does not mean I have to bear it silently.


Bwahahahahahaha. FUnniest thing you've written yet.
