I love Christmas. I ignore what Hallmark has made of it and just enjoy the cheer and the family gatherings. To me it's a joyous time and I enjoy it very much.

Hahaha...let's all praise LaVeyian Satanism, for it is wise to hate just about everything in the universe, as much as possible.

Yea, LaVeyian Satanism is just as plausiable as Wicca is the oldest religion.

Artist: Satan Lyrics
Song: Christmastime in Hell Lyrics
Satan: Well I tell you what,
Maybe we'll have ourselves a little Christmas, right here.
C'mon everyone, gather `round!

String up the lights and light up the tree
We're going to make some revelry
Spirits are high, so I can tell
It's Christmas time in hell!

Demons are nicer as you pass them by
There's lots of demon toys to buy
The snow is falling and all is well
It's Christmas time in hell!

There goes Jeffery Dahmer,
With a festive Christmas ham
After he has sex with it,
He'll eat up all he can.

And there goes John F. Kennedy
Caroling with his son
Reunited for the holidays
God bless us, everyone!

Everybody has a happy glow
Let's dance in blood and pretend its snow
Even Mao Tse-Tung is under the spell
It's Christmas time in hell!

Adolf, here's a present for you.

Hitler: Oh? O Tannenbaum!

Satan: Yes, O Tannenbaum!

God cast me down from Heaven's door
To rule in hell for evermore
But now I'm kinda glad that I fell
'Cause It's Christmas time in hell!

Here's a rack to hang the stockings on
We still have to shop for Genghis Kahn!
Michael Landon's hair looks swell!
It's Christmas time in hell!

There's Princess Diana
Holding burning mistletoe
Over poor Gene Siskel's head
Just watch his weenie grow!

For one day we all stop burning
And the flames are not so thick
All the screaming and the torture stops
As we wait for old Saint Nick!

So string up the lights and light up the tree
We're damned for all eternity
But for just one day all is well
It's Christmas time in hell!

We've got to toast together, and make it quick!
We've gotta make room for Andy Dick.
Wake his mother and ring the bell

It's Christmas time...

(Christmas time... Christmas time... Christmas time...)

Christmas time...

(Christmas time... Christmas time... Christmas time...)

It's Christmas time in hell!

Merry Christmas Rooming House!

I'd celebrate it on Jan 7fh... just because things are cheaper then. As for commercilization, I welcome it. After making it a seasonal thing, it becomes easier to celebrate it on the actual solstace. (And because I like to see it being stolen from the thiefs that stole it in the first place.)

Hmmm...Anyday as long as it's once a year to keep it special sounds like a plan to me. Just no cold mornings. And post pone the siblings until you have regained conciousness and health as seen here. I believe it was this one-2005 or the one before when I had a upper respiratory infection. Me-shut up and die Bro-presents! UP!!
This Christmas I wasn't feeling up to it, was a zombie and didn't care. This picture I'm opening a 30gig iPod cover and I haven't realized what the hell I'm even holding yet. http://img222.imageshack.us/img222/8964/grrrke1.jpg

Neways, the hell of the Christmas season begins in November when you try and shove your way into stores you don't go into and finally are like, move it kiddo, I don't care what your mommy thinks about Barbie, MOVE IT.

I love Christmas, but that's only because up until now it was the time of year I got to go home to Australia and see my family. We'd spend it on the beach (as it was summertime), with no Christmas tree, no Christmas songs, and instead of presents we'd give each other donations to charity. We'd sing Christmas CAROLS which do NOT include Jingle Bells or any of that other crap. It was a time based around giving and appreciating one another. And that's what it bloody should be.

The commercialisation is disgusting. Here's an example: I live in a Muslim country. Sure, there are a few Hindus, Buddhists and Christians around, but the official national religion (as ridiculous as it seems to even have one) is Islam.

And yet Christmas decorations still go up. The soundwaves in the college cafeteria are being polluted by Jingle Bell Fucking Rock. There are Christmas sales. Christmas this and Christmas that, and all of it tying right back up to SPEND! SPEND! SPEND!

Aw, well. I'll be spending Christmas this year skiing in the Italian alps. With some luck, the village I stay in will be so small there'll be no room for useless Santa Clause decorations.

Are you serious? They go spend-crazy over Christmas in a Muslim country? That's horrible! (Well, it's horrible anywhere, but still.)

At least you have the Alps. I envy you that. That sounds like a lovely way to spend Christmas.

There's nothing better than Sinatra's and Martin's Christmas carols.

Anyone seen the movie Bad Santa?
In all seriousness, I believe it represents the perfect spirit of Christmas.
The guy almost died to give the kid a pink elephant!
As rude and coarse as that movie is, that scene almost makes me want to cry.

I only saw part of it. Up to the part where the fat kid takes "bad Santa" home, and "bad Santa" steals his father's car.

Though that still leads to another topic... Christmas stereotypes. Bad Santa starts out with the stereotype of old alcoholics taking a job as a mall Santa just to get by. Old Christmas movies are just as stereotypical, though usually in other ways. Liike A Christmas Story. The family's dinner gets ruined by a random pack of roaming dogs, so they end up eating at a Chinese restaurant where the employees sing "Deck the harrs with boughs of horry, ha ra ra ra ra, ra ra ra ra..."

Satanism isn't like that. If you'd have cared to enlighten yourself before trampling on other people's faith and then said something like this I'd probably respect your opinion, but this is pure bullshit. Now, next time you want to have a go at someone else's beliefs, and do it intellignetly, take a look at www.religioustolerance.org. Oh, and a little bit of reading for you: http://churchofsatan.tv/faq.html.

When it comes to the subject of this topic, I agree. I've never been able to stand Christmas. If it was my decision I would ignore the date altogether. I guess this has something to do with my personal memories of pretending to be a part of one big, happy family so that my distant relatives wouldn't get to know about my stepfather being a psychopath.

I know what can make any Christmas better. Just reading the lyrics of "Father Christmas" by the Kinks makes me glow.

FATHER CHRISTMAS
The Kinks

When I was small I believed in Santa Clause
Though I knew it was my dad
And I would hang up my stocking at Christmas
Open my presents and I'd be glad

But the last time I played Father Christmas
I stood outside a department store
A gang of kids came over and mugged me
And knocked my reindeer to the floor

They said:
"Father Christmas, give us some money
Don't mess around with those silly toys.
We'll beat you up if you don't hand it over
We want your bread so don't make us annoyed
Give all the toys to the little rich boys

"Don't give my brother a real trashy outfit
Don't give my sister a cuddly toy
We don't want a jigsaw or monopoly money
We only want the real McCoy

"Father Christmas, give us some money
We'll beat you up if you make us annoyed
Father Christmas, give us some money
Don't mess around with those silly toys

"But give my daddy a job 'cause he needs one
He's got lots of mouths to feed
But if you've got one, I'll have a machine gun
So I can scare all the kids down the street

Father Christmas, give us some money
We got no time for your silly toys
We'll beat you up if you don't hand it over
Give all the toys to the little rich boys

Have yourself a merry merry Christmas
Have yourself a good time
But remember the kids who got nothin'
While you're drinkin' down your wine

"Father Christmas, give us some money
We got no time for your silly toys
We'll beat you up if you don't hand it over
We want your bread, so don't make us annoyed

Father Christmas, give us some money
We got no time for your silly toys
We'll beat you up if you don't hand it over
Give all the toys to the little rich boys

I don't really like the style of christmas. Actually, my room is in perpetual halloween mood . And hearing the same christmas songs every year gets a little old. But hey I still love getting and giving presents. Im not a pagan or christian (or anything), and for me christmas doesn't really have any meaning at all. Its just a fun time, for the most part.

2) Toy drive: barrels and barrels of toys (55 gallon drum sized barrels).
3) Adopt a family: we are given a list of families by the local family assistance charity, and we go to their house with a Christmas tree, toys for the kids and clothes for the parents.

And there are many other people in other organizations and companies that do this too. Some of humanity is altrustic. All is not lost yet. Each of us can make a difference.

Yeah, but working in retail, don't you often get a chance to help someone pick just the perfect gift for their loved ones? That's always rewarding.
