Comment on [What if scenario] What if all commercial institutions suddenly decided they no longer intend to acknowledge religious events such as Christmas?

  We can have these without the commercialism can’t we? Homemade decorations and costumes have more value and the act of making them with your family provides the time to talk about what these traditions are about.

    Oddly I don’t do Christmas at home, aside from sharing a couple gifts. So its going about the city or to the mall where I tend to experience the decorations and festive atmosphere. As well as driving around and looking at people’s light shows and lawn decorations.

    Not sure how that would be impacted, but I would miss it if it wasn’t there.

      Yeah I don’t necessarily buy a lot of things when I go out during christmas time, but the lights and decorations just add to the “christmas spirit” for me.

        Do you live in a place with snow?
