Warm Oklahoma winds, 8ft tall corn stalks, and nothing but silence. Humm. Sounds like Children of the corn to me...lol....

If i had to give Christmas some meaning...i would have to say the true meaning of Christmas is sex.

Funny you should say that Frank,

Regarding Yule (Winter Solstice) - an origin of Christmas http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yule

According to neo-pagans, the Goddess has been impregnated by the God and gives birth to him again at Yule - 21 Dec, sparking a 7 day festival where clearly 25th slap bang in the middle. So in a round about way it is about sex. LOL

Hi Frank, I hope my PM helps.

I have a sweet tooth too. It's weird. If I don't have them in front of my face I don't even think about them, but if I have them in the house I just can't stop.

Looks like some here still have their Borg implants running at cyber speed. As I said to my JW friend recently I am glad I was never forced into something so mind nummingly irrelevant. So many of you have had all the fun sucked out of you.

Our family enjoys the time together-Jesus is not the reason-living is the reason(not knocking Jesus though). We don't get together for pagan reasons, we get together because we are flesh and blood. We do it several times a month. No love bombing, just love of family. No specific reason at all, unless a turkey or ham is on sale.

We are a real family, not a false family. No shunning-all is welcome including friends.

But it IS a choice- we simply choose to be happy. It's also ok to do nothing at all. To those, merry nothing.

Sirona and worldtraveller - EXACTLY!!!

Celebrate it if you want, for whatever reason you want. Who says it HAS to be about Jesus - other than blinkered control freaks?

I can honestly say my indifference to holidays has nothing to do with the JW indoctrination. Their non celebration of holidays was one thing I found attractive about them. I lost interest in holidays before I was a teenager, about 13 years before I got involved with the JWs. I didn't like receiving gifts, and still don't. I'm not sure why - maybe I don't like feeling indebted to anyone. I hate being the center of attention, so birthdays are out. My family and I have little in common aside from ancestry, so I can only take them in small doses. I'm sure they feel the same way.

I prefer getting together with friends that I have something in common with.
