Religious organizations and certain media outlets are outraged at what they call a 'War on Christmas.' Georgetown University's Christopher Chambers discusses what Christmas is really all about.

1. The War on Christmas

Hilarious Sam Seder debate with fundie over the War on Christmas.

SEDER: Listen, as far as the war on Christmas goes, I feel like we should be waging a war on Christmas. I mean, I believe that Christmas, it's almost proven that Christmas has nuclear weapons, can be an imminent threat to this country, that they have operative ties with terrorists and I believe that we should sacrifice thousands of American lives in pursuit of this war on Christmas. And hundreds of billions of dollars of taxpayer money.

2. It's ALMOST made up!

Almost? ALMOST????

It IS made up! No one even knows if Jesus existed. And they certainly do not know anything about his birth if he did. St Luke (whoever he/they were) is the only one to add a nice little miracle birth story to his tale of events that supposedly happened 70+ years before he wrote it.

Based on a TRUE STORY! (because women give birth, but not virgins, and shepherds watch their flocks, but not, as a rule, at night)
