The very quotable Steve H.:
Oh, yeah. While you’re having fun, remember that Christmas has something or other to do with that “Christ” guy. In a world where most religions see God or the gods as selfish, capricious jerks or apathetic administrators who don’t care about human suffering, Christianity alone recognizes God as a person who loved us so much He came to earth in the form of a man and allowed Himself to be tortured to death by His jeering enemies so we could be free of the consequences of our own evil deeds.
A lot of religions require the sacrifice of human beings to please gods. Christianity’s God sacrificed Himself for the benefit of human beings.
As end-of-the-year gifts go, that one is hard to top.
Pretty hard indeed.
