Not at all. I simply am a historian and you are a wishorian. Read the research and weep. Our Christmas, as we celebrate it now, is the creation of Victorians. And an affluent cheery lot they were- when they weren't out hunting up harlots (amazing numbers of prostitutes during Victorian times- there are some wonderful research papers on this topic. If you were nice I would send them to you, but since you've decided to be naughty I'll send you the paper on owl scat in the San Bernardino Mountains)
