The secularization of Christmas

from Beer and Conversation with Pigweed and Crowhill · host Pigweed and Crowhill

From the archives, the boys drink and review Crowhill's 2020 Christmas braggot (an ale with honey), then discuss the secularization of Christmas. P&C love the holiday festivities, but notice that the religious side of Christmas seems to be losing out to Santa, Rudolph, Frosty, and such. What's the balance between the penitential season of Advent and the ho ho silliness in the snow? And what about religion in public life? Should we be afraid to say "Merry Christmas" if we don't know the person is a Christian. Some people call it "the war on Christmas." Is that fair? 📬 Send us your thoughts: [email protected] 🌐 More episodes: pigweedandcrowhill.com👍 Like, subscribe, and tell a friend
