Follow the line "what is in a name" and say "what is in a date" the rose
would still smell sweeter by any other name .

The world has paganized the inner joy we feel that Christ was born to teach us the way. Gifts, feeding frenzies and family reunions have nothing to do with that inner joy we feel. It is a personal joy which used to be shared meaningfully before commercialism took over. The way it used to be was that we celebrated in Church, not in Walmart! No matter the origins, it is how we approach it now that matters!

I've heard so many "facts"
about the origin of Christmas that I'm now convinced that no one really knows the truth.
