That scene is my favorite of all the Peanuts holiday specials.
It makes me sad that not only have we as a society forgotten what Christmas was all about-focusing on trees and presents and vacations-but this special would never be made today. Quoting the Bible would be difficult to get any producer of mainstream media to allow. It would be looked at as not inclusive enough.
We, as a world, seem to have forgotten today is the day that:
"God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him might not perish but might have eternal life."
Maybe through all the hustle and bustle of Christmas we can take a moment to remember that.
