The same can also be said when you replace religion with alcohol, or patriotism, or sports, or food...which means as human beings, we're opinionated, ridiculous, and driven by food and the need to win...regardless of how petty the stakes or worthless the prize...but for this short time of the year, I hope we can come together and wish each other well.
Merry Christmas to you and yours, Kapi!
