One man with courage makes a majority.
Sloth? Tell that to the shoppers and the people who make the meal. Sloth is quite different from relaxing.
Gluttony. This one you could have an arguement for, but this day certainly isn't the pinnacle. *points to Thanksgiving*
I've been explaining this to friends and family for years. Hell, even the name "Santa" is an anagram(yes? no? scrambling the letters of a word to make another word?) of "Satan"
And you thought Cadga was lying when he told you all that!

Falaanla Marr had this to say about Matthew Broderick:
All of this engineered by the genetically superior race of Super-Dogs that feed on trash in the back of garbage trucks.And you thought Cadga was lying when he told you all that!
Necromancer: How DARE you imply that I was involved in a rude act with my undead servant! I will flay the flesh from your bones! I will summon a thousand maggot-ridden corpses to gnaw your flesh! I will trap your soul in-
Ghoul: My ass hurts.

Tell me that's not a happy holiday 
Most Jewish/Christian holidays were formed during a time when almost anything - eating, laughing, kissing - was considered sinful at least on some level.
The holidays and celebrations they developed signaled a time when they could relax thier normally tense piety and indulge a little with feasts, gatherings and merriment.

And I was all like 'Oh yeah?' and Ragabash was all like:
Personally, I don't see the greed, per se. Maybe for the companies. But for the people that _I_ know, they'd be just as happy not getting gifts on Christmas. They are more content of just being able to have a day being together. Greed, to me, means someone wants more and more and more. On Christmas no one that I know demands that they be given stuff. They offer a list to those that insist on getting them something, because they know if they don't give a list, they'll be given stuff anyway. May as well make it worthwhile stuff.
Gimme my presents!
