What is the purpose of Christmas in this day and age?

Answer 1

== == In this day and age Christmas has become commercialized. But for me, Christmas is a time to be with my family - and to celebrate my nephew's birthday. :) == == * The meaning of Christmas has never changed, we have. The celebration Of the birth of Jesus Christ is still held by many more people than you'd think. God even gave me a son for Christmas,he's grown now, but every day I see my special present. But that isn't newsworthy and it doesn't take six weeks of shopping to do it. But take heart, all isn't as it seems. For at least a short period of the year, people are a little nicer, people buy gifts for others. They think about the person and what would make them happy. Of course, we can take joy in toys for tots,food and gift banks for strangers, and even the young child that spends his money on a gift for his parents. We are giving to other before ourselves. Isn't that what Christ wanted? If I could have a Christmas wish it would be that these feelings would truly last all year long.Les
