As I said, most adults don't care for what they get at Christmas. You know this. So the idea you at pushing that they are only giving to receive is just being mean and judgmental.

Christmas giving has always been centred around children, who don't own anything so are pretty much the only truly poor and needy in Western society.

As said, I help out at a food bank and not a single poor or needy person was seen this year. Plenty of alcoholics though. God knows how many people these charities have killed by allowing those guys to spend all their money on booze rather than having to put a little aside for food and clothing.

You could be right that many adults, who already have all the basics they need to sustain their physical bodies, do not care what they receive as a Christmas present but do you not agree that those same people would be offended if they gave a present to someone who gave them no present in return? Imagine a wife or girlfriend giving her man a Christmas present, then returns to her coworkers or friends, and they ask her: "So, what did you get for Christmas?" Will not most women be embarrassed to admit their man got them nothing?

Children are lied to by their own family who push the Satan Santa tradition as being the giver of the junk they didn't need, and are spoiled and made rotten by this tradition, increasing their selfishness, laziness, and disregard for others and for reality.

We always have the poor and needy around us. I have personally heard two separate homes in the past month that had no central heat. Either their electricity was turned off or their heating unit was broken and too expensive for them to fix. Imagine trying to get through this winter with no heat.... I consider those to be poor and needy, and could truly benefit from any help from their neighbors to get their heat working.

Our once-blessed nation is being destroyed each day more and more. If anyone pays attention, they would see the numbers of poor and needy are growing daily.
