-If I had money, yes, I believe i would spend. However, not just for the commercial products, but for the sake of giving. I once went all year making a thousand paper cranes and giving them to people instead of giving costly goods, which they respected as a sign of friendship.

-I spend little to nothing each christmas, as I have no job (17 years old)

-100% all for that statement by the pope. It has become a beast that cannot be contained (quoted from Lewis Black), and it shouldn't be just about presents and stuff. It's a time of rejoice, and IMO, it doesn't matter the religion. I believe in a sense, it has nothing to do with religion, but more as to friendship, good will towards others, rejoice, and giving.

(Yes, I know it is a christian religion, it's just an opinion)
