I'm sorry I even ask this question.  I asked not to have anyone argue over it.  Please guys!!!  Do not argue, this is all for learning and fun, not to come to blows over it.  Part of us all being connected is to learn to forgive one another and to end all the anger and difference of opinions.  We all can learn from each other in this forum.  It is always good to have a difference of opinion and that is what makes each of us all different and unique.  I told my husband this just the other day, Christmas comes but once a year, one day where everyone gets in the spirit and it gives us a sense of compassion for the next person.  We tend to say hi to a stranger as well walk by them, or even have a little more of a forgiven nature when we see someone say or do something we don't agree on or approve of.  The meaning of Christmas is so lost today, it has boiled down to being so commercialized that it's all about recieving presents on this day and the true meaning of what this day represents is totally lost to almost everyone.

This was the day that Jesus Christ was born, but not just the day he was born.  It was the beginning of what he wanted everyone to know and learn throughout our lives.  He came into this world to teach us that this is a type of day we should be living every day of our lives.  The compassion, the forgiving, the kind gesture to each other for the next person.  This is the way he wants us to love our brothers as we love ourselves.  There's so much hatred and war already going on in the world already, let them fight each other.  We need to come together and try to change how society thinks and show them they are still living in the darkness and that they need to start waking up and walk in the light.  

When I see people arguing with each other, it actually breaks my heart because we have step one step forward only to fall back one step backwards.

Christmas was very quiet for me, but it's ok, got some research done that I've hadn't had the opportunity to do in a long time.  How was your Christmas?
