I just noticed that the way christmas was celebrated 15 years ago isn't the same way christmas is been celebrated presently. I think there has been a steady slow decline in interest and celebration over the years. 15 years ago when christmas approaches, you can always feel it in the air. The activities going on around will make you say yes this is christmas. But this present day christmas shows a big change and difference from those of the upper years. It just appears like an ordinary weekened day. I didn't send or recieve cards from anyone unlike the previous seasons. I didn't do any shopping. The radio stations didn't play much christmas hyms like before. Even the lips tearing harmattan of other seasons did not show up. What really happened?

It was postponed this year.

This is exactly what I wanted to say. Is gradually fading out why?

Pple are beginning to realize that christmas is anti-christian.

I think you will find that the older you get the less these celebrations hold their value.

On contrast, it will be something memorable for someone who is young and possibly free of responsibilities.

It is not anti-Christian. There however elements that are not christain related. This do not make it anti-Christian.


Father Christmas have origin in what is essentially Christianity, so your statement is misleading.
