No Sunday Services on Christmas?

Apparently many churches across the nation have decided to forego services on Christmas since it falls on a Sunday, so that their members may stay home and open presents with their families.

So if I understand this correctly, it is as I've always suspected: the true meaning of Christmas is not the celebration of the birth of Christ, but the celebration of commercialism through gift exchange. No wonder the religious right is so hung up on hearing merry christmas instead of happy holidays in the mall as they buy their gifts. That just confirms for me the fact that organized religion is nothing more than just another big business.

Happy Days Off From Work and Merry Gift Exchange.
