No one who truly celebrates Christmas or Easter believes that God would punish the entire world because a few DCUM posters got too wrapped up in cookie parties or were annoyed by their ILs.

God only punishes those who do not believe in him. They burn for eternity no matter how good they were while alive. Belief in god- specifically the Christian god, determines whether you burn forever or go to heaven.

You’ve been told almost weekly that most Christians do not believe this. Why do you keep repeating it?

It is the basis of Christianity. Christians who don't believe it will suffer the same fate.

It is not the basis of Christianity, at least for most Christians. Stop repeating this nonsense.

What is the basis of Christianity -- Jesus is a nice guy, with good things to say, who wants you to come live with him and his Dad forever in heaven?

And how do you know this? Where are all these people burning forever? Is there any evidence?

Yep.. no link, didn't happen. This is how DCUM works.

THere are no internet links proving the existence of heaven and hell - they are beyond the scope of the internet. They are sacred religious beliefs.

Hmmmm... ever wondered why?... no first hand experience.

Nope. It’s people of different faiths and no faith who have been going all along, “Easter sucks” and are now back to wave their fingers at people who celebrate it. OP must have an uninteresting life if this counts as useful to him. Ignore, ignore, ignore.

This is such an unnecessary post, OP. While I did not post any of those holiday threads complaining about my ILs or whatever, I've been stressed over the holidays, sure. I've had fleeting thoughts of "I wish it could just be us without all this fuss," yes. Because I am human.

But at the end of the day, I love my family and my husband's family, and I love creating and celebrating nice holidays and loving memories. It's worth the effort.

But you know what? Like it says in the Grinch book, Easter "came just the same," and so will any other holidays that look and feel a bit different this year. No matter what, we will celebrate Thanksgiving and Christmas and all the other holidays. The will still be special. And if this year we have to do it with just our immediate families, Christmas will come just the same. And there will be gifts and blessings to a different Christmas, as we have eyes to see them.

Nice to see that some people are still getting wine deliveries.

OP is right
We should all stop complaining

No need to celebrate Diwali, fourth of July, Thanksgiving, Christmas or Rosh Hashanah

Just do what you like

I like to think if it as a silver lining to a bad situation - reward is a bit much.
