alot of good is done ( christmas)

"But alot of good things are done," I have been told, as a way to support Christmas.
Yes that's true, alot of good things are done at that time of year. But does that suddenly justify it? Does that make a wrong thing right?

Here is just a few of the many good things done at Christmas time.

visiting nursing homes and goody packages given to the residents there,
helping out at mission centers,
help packages sent to poor kids in 3rd world countries,
toy and food drives for the underprivileged,
goody packages and cards given to kids in the hospital,
visiting prisons,
donations made to charitable organizations,
blankets given to the homeless

All good things, but these things can be done all the time all year long!! God wants us to be meeting the needs of others everyday.

Another thing that Christmas does though not really related to the things mentioned above, is that is boost the economy. I guess that's good right?
I know theres always news on it after the biggest shopping day of the year ( day after Thanksgiving). Our economy just thrives on all those sales of Christmas stuff. Truly I do not know where the economy would be with out it.
But does that make it right?
And I wonder what God thinks of that as he looks down from above? All these people running around doing their shopping on all kinds of unnecessary things, some spending money they don't even have, but doing it all in preparing for Christmas.
