When
Christmas emphasizes “commerce, activity,
culture, carols,” plus “dancing and traditional
foods,” its holy essence can get lost in
the shuffle. Politicians and shopkeepers might then milk the hubbub for all it's worth. They
may even decide to lengthen the overall season.Claiming
to defend the Venezuelans' “right to
happiness,” President Nicolas Maduro decreed
that Christmas 2025 shall begin on October
1st. One recipient commented that a prolonged
and ghoulish Halloween might be
more reflective of the general mood.
