Re: Why Is The "Christmas Spirit" So Different?

Making a car an idol is consciously adoring something. That is apples and oranges to enjoying gift giving. No one is worshiping anything when they give gifts at Christmas and decorate their homes, compared to idolizing a car. Putting a gift beneath a tree is nothing like worship. It is placing a box where people expect to retrieve them and open them. lol How is THAT anything similar to idolizing a car?
