State Research & Extension Services & Community Partnership for Prevention and Education star-news The Goodland Star-News / Tuesday, December 24, 2013 opinion from our viewpoint... It’s easy to forget the real reason of Christmas With all the hustle and stress of what we call “the holiday season,” it’s easy to lose sight of why we do all this, even for those who accept and believe in the message in the coming of the Christ child. We get busy. There’s a lot to do, presents to buy, homes and trees to decorate, parties and programs to attend, events to notice, sales and shopping, the list goes on. No one even knows exactly why we celebrate His birth at this time of the year, since scholars say the Bible gives no actual date for the birth. Many speculate that Dec. 25 was chosen by the Roman church because a Christmas celebration then would overshadow traditional pagan observances in Europe keyed to the winter solstice, the shortest day of the year. It’s easy to forget that the day originated with a church service, the Christ Mass, and while many of us will be in church either Christmas Eve or day, it seems like more and more people in what we once called Western Civilization either question these beliefs or no longer know what to believe. Perhaps, as a noted writer once said, we live in a cynical age. The wonder and promise of the Christmas story is just too much for many to accept, the whole idea of a Savior sent to forgive us our sins and lead us to everlasting life. It is a lot to swallow when you look at it that way. Or maybe it’s the commitment required to accept the offer and try to live as Christ teaches us to live, recognizing that we remain nothing more than, as Nelson Mandela put it, sinners who keep 1,000th listening tour stop trying. Perhaps the idea of a judgment day, a winnowing time when the The pioneering spirit of the earliest Kansas in so many of our communities across Kansas, wheat will be separated and the chaff swept into unquenchable settlers lives on today.
