Oh no, a bible basher. 'Christ saved us all meh meh meh'
I think you should remember that the Christians stole Christmas from the Pagan's.

It's ironic actually
Christmas started as a pagan holiday lol. So yes we have lost the focus of what christmas is really about... So Christianity basically high jacked it and turned it into their own holiday celebrating Christs birth when he wasn't even born in December...
Now don't get me wrong here, I am a Christian but I don't believe that you can say that we have lost the focus of Christmas when it was really a pagan holiday...
So if you think about it. Christmas is supposed to be focused on trees, lights, gifts, etc..

In the Roman world, the Saturnalia (December 17) was a time of merrymaking and exchanging of gifts. December 25 was also regarded as the birthdate of the Iranian mystery god Mithra, the Sun of Righteousness. On the Roman New Year (January 1), houses were decorated with greenery and lights, and gifts were given to children and the poor. To these observances were added the German and Celtic Yule rites when the Teutonic tribes penetrated into Gaul, Britain and central Europe. Food and good fellowship, the Yule log and Yule cakes, greenery and fir trees, gifts and greetings all commemorated different aspects of this festive season. Fires and lights, symbols of warmth and lasting life, have always been associated with the winter festival, both pagan and Christian (Encyclopedia Britannica, 15th ed., vol. II, p. 903).
Now don't get me wrong here, I am a Christian but I don't believe that you can say that we have lost the focus of Christmas when it was really a pagan holiday...
