Christmas Is for Losers

Most people know that the religious roots of Christmas can be found in the great redemptive event of Jesus Christ’s birth or incarnation, which is just a theological term that refers to the deliberate act of the second person of the Trinity emptying himself of his glory and taking on human nature. The wonder of this event is most commonly depicted through the religiously rich pageantry of the nativity scene. But in the multitude of cooing baby Jesus pretenders that would make even Ricky Bobby proud, one thing is often lost: Christmas really is for losers.
