Real presents are better than chocolate eggs; therefore Christmas is better than Easter. That is the true reasons behind these seasonal holidays these days. To most people they have no religious reason at all.
Easter is a pointless celebration put forward by the companies that saw Christmas as a success. Of course Easter has its values to a religious person but the fact is most of the people who eat the eggs have no idea why or don’t even care. Christmas is another time of year that my head tells me is pointless and just commercial yet I can’t help but feel excited and happy at that time of year. It’s not for the reason that you get presents or to do with religion, it’s just the feeling you get around Christmas, maybe the fact that there is actually decent telly on at that time of year.
Christmas overall is more acceptable time of year, though that is still greatly taken advantage of by the global companies. They should move the religious Christmas and the commercial Christmas to different times of years. That would save the hassle of religious people trying to force there ideas on the non-believers and save the non believers having to defend there reason to loves the holidays.

what about an objective overview? who is driving the commercial aspects of both Easter and Christmas? how much money do both generate and would it do even more damage to the economy if we stopped subscribing to the consumer fest?
ReplyDeleteis Christmas really better because people give real presents? does that not just devalue it even more?
