Christmas

Winterfest/Christmas

I received a lovely email from my father in law (who lives abroad) to tell me that presents for the children have been posted. In the email he requested that I make a cake 'For Jesus' in order to celebrate the true meaning of Christmas, and that everything is too commercial. I relied telling him that we tend to amalgamate Christs birth and pagan traditions as we use a tree, give presents and acknowledge Santa. He is now rather upset and appears offended ~ and went on to rant about how my child should not have learned about Diwali...this was after I told him that I love the idea of my children learning about all religions and traditions as it makes them a whole person and encourages 'tolerance' (I hate that word!) At least I am being honest. On the other hand he is heavily into porn, drinks like a fish and has been divorced twice due to adultery. Do you have to put with this sort of hypocrisy, and how do you deal with it?
