Kwanzzaa just like Christmas has become a way for folks to wake-up on January 2nd and not know how they're going to pay all those credit card bills.
And for Christmas, some argue that that's "made up." Trees, santa claus, debt isn't in The Bible either, but we-Christians celebrate it.
I stopped celebrating Christmas by purchasing gifts. I prefer just to be with family and to eat all day.

You're welcome for the info.
And I agree as well...Christmas has become so commercialized its sickening. I prefer to give gifts all year around and actually celebrate the birth and reign of Christ. I know its not the day of his birth..and although Christians should celebrate it daily..I still celebrate his birth during the time
I don't have children yet...but I actually struggle with how I will treat Christmas when I do have children. I actually want to take my children when they're of age to homeless shelters, soup kitchens etc on Christmas day. And I would give them gifts year around... But my friends and family say that's not fair to the children. I guess I'll cross that bridge when I get to it.
