Bribie: Following and acting out the Christmas celebration seems very cultish to me!
Does it, really? Cults limit behavior and information access. If I put up lights and buy gifts for friends, is that really cultish?
Merry Christmas Everyone

Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukkah...or since I am Jewish, and since this year Hanukkah begins on the evening of the 25th of December, Happy Chrismukkah!
This photo is from a previous "Chrismukkah" celebration, in 2005. Yes, this was the actual color of the lighting from the tree and the lights.
(And for those who might wonder, this was the first night of Hanukkah, but the electric hanukkiah in the photo is an outdoor Hanukkah menorah and was therefore lit from the outside instead of inside. When that happens it appears backward in light order when viewed from the inside. Usually on the first night of Hanukkah you would see the first candle on the right in a photo, but only if you were looking at the menorah from the front and it was lit from the inside. Some have asked about this--Jewish rules, sigh!)
While I have several menorahs, some with candles that I light for Hanukkah, I tend to use electric ones in the windows and for the outdoors, like the new red one down below. My other half is a Catholic, thus there is always a Christmas tree in the house come December. (If the JWs could see me now--so many holidays thru the year!)
