What Season Is It?
19 November, 2009Today I went into PetSmart to get some stuff for the fish tank in my office and saw they had already put up their holiday season decorations. (apparently they don’t care about Thanksgiving)
Normally I would say Christmas decorations, but there was more than just Christmas. The sign said “Merry Christmas, Feliz Navidad, Happy Hanukkah, and Happy Ramadan.
Interesting.
Just three years ago I remember people going crazy about religious decorations. Businesses were avoiding offending people and simply went with ‘holiday’ decorations. Now, businesses and schools are attempting to embrace it all.
Maybe this is evidence that people are searching for truth, but are not sure where to find it.
The crazy thing about it all, is that Christmas isn’t even much of a religious holiday anymore. Sure, it is for Christians, but I know many non-Christians who celebrate this cultural holiday. Santa Claus, Christmas Tree, Eggnog… it’s an American holiday. What’s wrong with celebrating that?
