Dec. 8th, 2005 11:15 amDear Sir or Madam:
Re: "Politics of Christmas, from left and right":
Gee. So trees MUST be Christmas trees? I guess I should round up my Wiccan friends and tell them they can't use trees in their Winter Solstice celebrations!
Thank God I have spent years reducing my participation in the commercial Christmas mess. My gift list is short, my decorations are minimal, and no, I do NOT bother with a tree. I actually have time to spend in prayer, meditation, and Bible reading this way. Silly me, I thought that was what Advent & Christmas were about!
