if you're into Jesus you really have nothing to complain about. he got 3 gifts and his b-day is on Xmas, then they nailed him to a tree and remember him as a white guy with a British accent. THAT sucks.

I understand that he was actually born in the summer, june or july or something.

The whole Christmas thing was set up by the church as a way of competing with, challenging, and suppressing some of the older religions who celebrated their own religious holidays, like the winter solstice, around this time.

lol at the white guy with a British accent. It's funny, and so true.

Regarding birthdays, I think that Tolkien had a good idea. In the Shire, on their birthday, a Hobbit would be expected to throw a big party and give gifts to all of their friends and family at the party, in place of receiving them.

Seems like a pain in the ass, and expensive, on first thought, but all throughout the year you would receive gifts every time one of your friends had a birthday, and "re-gifting" was an acceptable practice.

In Tolkien's Middle Earth at least.

Interesting concept in my opinion.

Maybe not. I'm a bit spent after a long drive.

he he..the truth is Jesus was boring smelly hippy essene who would be the 33AD equivalent of one of those fuckers who eats rice cakes and wheat grass tea or something

99% of modern day christians would have hated him, especially the pope who would have been the one ordering his crucifixion

All my Christmasses have been shit. Since I can remember. Having my birthday a couple of days later meant that as a kid I would only get one present, and no it wasn't double in value nor was there any extra expense made to compensate. I spent all my childhood jealously watching my brother and sister get a Christmas present and a birthday one.

Many years on. My wife, who is fully aware of this hang up of mine, tries year after year to make a special effort to get me something nice on both Christmas and my birthday. Yet year after year it all goes wrong. Maybe the situation would be easier if I wasn't such a demanding bastard, but that's another story.

Anyway, here is the typical scenario at my house Christmas time. I should point out first that my Wife and I love each other very much, but the same thing seems to happen year in, year out.

About the 23rd or 24th of December, we would have had a slight argument about something that started trivial and ends up being an in depth, psychological breakdown of each negative aspect of our personalities. Throw in a bit of yelling, some name calling and eventually it gets to the point of announcing divorce and going our seperate ways.

Then over a period of about a week or so, it all comes good again. We'll open our presents and if we haven't torn up the receipts in anger and if it's not too late, return or exchange them.

Having a birthday on 12/23, I used to whine about the same thing.....then I turned twelve!

Jesus Christ, do you realize there's people with real problems on Christmas and every other day of the year?

you're worse than the "waah, worst christmas ever, my car got a scratchy in the parking lot and no one cares!" guy.

Be thankful your father didn't have forced sex with you this morning or that your momma didn't sell what few gifts you got from the United Way for a five-dollar rock.

Ya'll must be some real privileged folks up in here. No shame in that, but you should see life from the other side sometime and realize you got it nice and cushy.

I can't help but Rant:

WTF people?? This is just another reason to dislike this phallacy. (pun intended).

Just because it's the magical Jesus Day, we expect it to be all shiny and cuddly and perfect. Like real life says, "oh wait, it's christ's birthday, let's make sure only good things happen to all the boys and girls today"

What a load!

Life Sucks AND Life is wonderful. It happens all the time. Somebody posted a Darwinism in here recently:

"It isn't the strong who survive, but the most adaptive."

Quit your fucking whining.

Congratulations on your good fortune.

Smell the roses. Keep the shit behind you.

Look ahead and make a plan.

word.

I had a bloody great Xmas!

Always do. Always will.

Bloody greatest Xmas ever, this one was THE BEST!

You gotta make an effort guys, simple as that.

Philosophically speaking, and looking at this from an absolutist, platonistic level, can we really quantify misery? To me, misery is misery. No matter what form or levels of degree it comes in.

[UKRuss]

Misery is a self imposed state of being.

I choose not to.

If you don't like something, then change it.

Radical: You don't actually love your wife as much as you think you do...

Not so radical: If Xmas isn't working right, change it up. Go on holiday instead.

"Jesus was a hippie, peace and love was all he was about
That's why they killed him, cause that sh*t's something people can't figure out
Now some folks who worship him are the ones who would have cheered at the crucifixion
They got no conviction it doesn't matter if the man was fact or fiction"

ROFLMAO! Obviously you've never experienced bad times, my friend. You are saying not getting separate gifts for birthday and Christmas is equal to having nowhere to sleep and nothing to eat for a few weeks? Or like the quoted says, getting molested or abused? You might want to re-evaluate that statement.

Additionally, you need to man up and get over it. My wife's b-day is the 21st of Dec., and my mother's is the 23rd. With Christmas falling on the same week, you bet your sweet ass that they BOTH get birthday/Christmas presents, as I'm not fucking Bill Gates.

You drama queen.
