Abolitionism in the North has leagued itself with Radical Democracy, and so the Slave Power was forced to ally itself with the Money Power; that is the great fact of the age.

Christmas is centered on Christ, it will always be about family for us, since our mother died the day after Christmas. She was in pain during Christmas, but she held on despite searing pain and heat from her 3rd degree burns and didnt want to die on Christmas.

Well as far as my grandfather goes, a very quiet birth on a farm with probably lots of animals. Though unlike Jesus, my grandfather had six or so siblings.
Catholic, pro-life, and proud of it. I prefer my debates on religion, politics, and sports with some coffee and a little Aquinas and G.K. CHESTERTON here and there. :3

faith, hope and love are some good things He gave us...
and the greatest is love."

The most wonderful time of the year.

Culturally, I observe the Christian/Western conception of Christmas, but that's about the extent to it.
