Should Christians Buy Nothing for Christmas?




Up for Debate show

Summary: Should Christians abstain from buying Christmas gifts to avoid the consumerism that dominates the season? This Saturday on <em>Up For Debate</em>, Julie Roys will explore the issue with Aiden Enns of "Buy Nothing Christmas"—an anti-consumerist initiative among Canadian Mennonites. Offering a different perspective will be Gerry Bowler, an historian who supports gift-giving and argues it's distinctly Christian. That's this Saturday at 8 a.m. on <em>Up for Debate</em>!
