“What makes Christmas ‘utterly unsuited’ to the modern world is what makes it so worthy of recognition. Christmas is gloriously out of step with the times, for it outlast the times. It champions obscurity over visibility. Humility over hubris. Mercy over human effort. Today, let us raise our glasses and our voices and our trees and our stockings in honor of the glorious unsuitability of Christmas.” -Ryan Whitaker Smith
