'Tis the Season to Lose Your Mind

Will someone please tell me, what in God's name we have come to? A Wal-mart employee trampled to death by shoppers? It's enough to make me want to cancel Christmas this year.

This is tragic and also a flag. What have we become? Things have replaced our humanity, at least in some hearts.

We are all culpable because we've supported a culture of consumerism, where an object has taken precedence over a life.

It harkens to scenes in at soccer games when I've thought a people gone mad. Now it is us.

I don't get it. Susan says it much better than I, I guess the thing to do is look at our own consumerism and take stock of what matters.

Black Friday is called black for a reason.
