America is actually 10 times more commercial.
Well its 50/50
Its a big country... a lot of people stick to the routes, and a lot dont!

I think the meaning of Christmas has changed for most people but I don't think it has gone. Before Christmas was all religion and the miracle of Christ and all that. But now because more people are open about how they feel about religion,the views of what Christmas are has changed.

I don't believe it is a money-making scam. I think it is about the Christmas atmosphere-putting up deccies with your family,going christmas shopping with friends,having everyone you meet wish you a 'merry christmas'. It is universally a happy time and a time for people to come together and enjoy Christmas together.

It may not be about religion anymore but the love is still there.

Meh i love christmas the meaning of christmas came back to me last years

where my parents didnt argue we done a lot of family things and had an amazing christmas day.

go out on the first weekend of december to get our tree as a family it was great and then seeing how happy my grandparents were is just bliss.

Though sadly my dad and brother fell out with his parents and my mums parents so christmas wont be so good though its still a work in progress im tyring to make it all work.
