    It's hard to think of a worse way to celebrate what Jesus stood for than Christmas.

        @rezaaslan Do you mean the modern commercial interpretation of Christmas or the whole historical context of Christmas?

        @rezaaslan Definitely agree with you. Personally, I love modern Christmas, but as an event to celebrate the birth of Jesus. Huge miss.

        @rezaaslan while I don't disagree, that's quite the inflammatory thing to say so close to the day.

        @rezaaslan Well Christmas isn't really about Jesus as you probably know. I mean: in the first place.

        @rezaaslan the charity aspect is nice, but people give me The Gears when I ask for them to donate or volunteer instead of buy gifts.

        @rezaaslan Depends on if you glorify God or glorify the mall and 60% off. I glorify the Holy Trinity.
