The reality being that before christ every year we had to travel to the nearest priest and give to him our best works of the year as a sacrofice for our sins. Our best cow, biggest bud, biggest paycheck from work, whatever. If you still had to do that every year what would you want for christmas? Ya. Youd want it back wouldnt you. So in a way when we celebrate christmas not only do we give presents to eachother but christ celebrates with us giving us (through santa) our greatest wish even when we have nothing we have given to him. Merry christmas every one.
