Mark McDonald makes the case for Christmas

Christmas is a happy time and there is no reason to be cynical about it.
JermBy Jerm22 Dec 2022Updated:22 Jan 2023
Christmas at the North Pole

Mark McDonald, a Los Angeles-based psychologist known as the dissident MD, has been on my show a few times, covering why it’s a good idea to celebrate toxic masculinity, family values and monogamy.

This time he joined me to argue the case for Christmas and why everybody should celebrate it.

It’s a position with which I agree because, after all, Christmas is a time of joy, fun and silliness. For many, it’s also a time to reflect on one’s Christianity.

Santa Claus giving the gift of freedom

I am no fan of the black pill, which is essentially ultra-cynicism and nihilism. However, the pagan roots of Christmas are a fact and there is no getting around its history.

Christmas is celebrated on December 25 and is both a sacred religious holiday and a worldwide cultural and commercial phenomenon. For two millennia, people around the world have been observing it with traditions and practices that are both religious and secular in nature. Christians celebrate Christmas Day as the anniversary of the birth of Jesus of Nazareth, a spiritual leader whose teachings form the basis of their religion. Popular customs include exchanging gifts, decorating Christmas trees, attending church, sharing meals with family and friends and, of course, waiting for Santa Claus to arrive. December 25—Christmas Day—has been a federal holiday in the United States since 1870.

History of Christmas

Nevertheless, the general joy that engulfs Christmas trumps the boring puritanical approach, in my opinion. My Christmas-themed conversation with Bob Moran and James Delingpole is one such example.

My wife and I watch silly Christmas movies starring Macaulay Culkin and Arnold Schwarzenegger; she puts up lights and I make eggnog; and we have delicious meals with our families.

If God sends me to Hell for that, then so be it.

Our conversation

Mark and I had a great time chatting about Christmas, movies, paganism and why we reject politically correct nonsense like “happy holidays” and “festive season”.
