As often happens, discussions of religion and politics can produce division instead of bringing people together.

I think that during the holiday season, people should open their homes and hearts to those around them. It is only through education and exposure to other cultures and beliefs that such divisiveness can be conquered.

I still can't stand the idea that Christmas, a very holy day in the Christian religion, has become a secular holiday. It shouldn't be. However, that doesn't mean that people shouldn't share.
