The real “Reason for the Season”
“It is now the month of December, when the greatest part of the city is in a bustle. Loose reins are given to public dissipation; everywhere you may hear the sound of great preparations” ~Seneca
Along with all the griping going on about the so-called “War on Christmas,” we’ve been seeing a lot of wagging fingers reminding us at every opportunity to remember the “Reason for the Season,” and inevitably, these folks are referring to Jesus. The truth is, not very many of the traditions associated with Christmas are Christian- or have anything to do with the birth of Jesus.
