No Church on Christmas?

Heather forwarded me this interesting little nugget:

"Churches Closed on Christmas"

Apparently several of the country's megachurches have cancelled Sunday services for Christmas day, since it's not a day they expect a big crowd of non-churchgoers. They're probably right--a lot of people will probably be staying home Christmas morning, even though it's a Sunday. Another piece of the puzzle about what kind of meaning Christmas really holds.

In this case the megachurches are saying: family traditions will come first.
