Christmas..

[ktheodos]

Is it too early to start decorating and/or playing music?

[darkxtsuna]

To me yeah its still early but once November starts your going to hear em starting up and decorating.

[ghunter]

Yes, Yes, Yes.  Christmas is not what it use to be, everyone out to out sell another too commercial.

Decorating seems to get earlier every year

I figure you can do what ever you want to.  I have already listened to Christmas music. And will change my ringtones in my phone to Christmas music prob today.  Would have already done it but I forgot.   It is none of anybody else's business.  If you want to decorate your house for Christmas right now then by all means do so.

ghunter, I don't have a problem with stores already having decorations out.  Some people only get paid once a month.  So having it out now helps them.  I, like other things, do not see why it upsets people so much what other people are doing.

I remember a few years ago a job I worked on, during lunch I was sitting in my car, prob in about Sept listening to a Christmas CD and some idiot I worked with thought they had the right to say something to ME for listening to Christmas music in MY car.  smh  Needless to say that did not go over to well.  People need to concern themselves more with themselves and less about what everybody else does.  I have heard people smarting off at our Walmart about the Christmas decorations being out.  It is a sep section of the store and you do not even have to go back to that area so why does it matter?

Putting up early decorations in October for December is crazy, let Christmas be only in December not in October, you after awhile get tired of seeing them, it takes all of the excitement out of Christmas.

It doesn't for everyone.  Why would you care if someone else puts their tree up in October?

I usually start putting up decorations sometime in November. But I do a lot so it take a bit to get it done.  Honestly if I thought it was going to pee somebody off for ME to put MY tree up in MY home today... Guess what I would be doing. lol

That answer fits your demeanor to a T!!!

Go put a nativity scene up and support King Herod killing ALL the 2 yr olds in Bethlehem as toldin Math 2nd chapter.

Just a reminder.The 3 astronomers may have meant well to go and honor Jesus,But Satan made sure the star firsy took them to Jerusalem to see Herod cos the king wanted to kill Jesus.Herod lied to them saying he also wanted to honor Jesus and report back to him so he would know where Jesus was.The angel warned the 3 of Herods intentions and go home another way...not to report back to the king.When Herod knew they werent coming back he had every 2 yr boy killed in Bethlehem.Angel also warned Joseph to take Mary and the child to Egypt till Herod was dead.

And people are soooooo blind today they cant see this murderous situation.Its right there in Math 2

Just 1 of many reasons why Xmas isnt supported by the TRUE God in the bible <Jehovah>

We know the date of Passover every yr cos Jesus commanded it.Nisan 14 Jewish calendar of his execution.Date changes each yr with OUR calendar.Xmas date NOWHERES to be found in bible.Manmade from pagan god.

I heard on the news last night that Christmas shopping started today.  Stores are having early sales.  There are fewer days between Thanksgiving and Christmas this year was their reason.

A little early for decorations. I have started shopping gotten a fewvth8ngs, have to shop for 11 people. To early for music get sick of it. Netflix is supposed to have Christmas movies coming Nov first will look at thise

[pstovall]

To each his own!  If putting up your Christmas decorations and listening to music gives you joy, then, I say, go for it. There is so much emotional stress and upheaval in the world, if decorating for Christmas makes you happy, then why should anybody else object!

I've start my toy shopping, but I'm just decorating for Halloween now. I usually decorate the weekend after Thanksgiving so I can celebrate the birth of Jesus for a whole month.  After the decorations come down, I continue to celebrate Jesus' birth all year.
