Christmas Music on the Radio

So, I have thoroughly enjoyed the radio stations that play Christmas music 24/7. However, I have noticed one peculiar thing. Many of these stations are secular (Sunny 99.1 in Houston and 103.7 in DFW) but play a lot of Christmas songs that mention the birth of Jesus and his coming to save the world. Not that I am opposed to this in any way - quite the contrary - I love them! However, these stations would normally be very adamant about not playing anything with a Christian influence in their regular broadcasts. So why is it perfectly acceptable to play songs about Baby Jesus and his saving of the world now, but not at any other time? Its a double standard - one that befuddles me.

Anyways, Thanksgiving break has been good. I definitely do not want to return to work on Monday. However, the break has also been full of writing two huge papers and it will feel good to get rid of those this week. After they are turned in, I am pretty much done with school for the semester aside from finals, which should not be too bad. Only a year longer until I'm (hopefully) done with school forever and can be a real human being. Studying and writing papers is getting old real fast. I am not sure what I want to do or where I want to work, but God is faithful and will reveal that to me in His own timing. Hopefully the limbo phase will not get the best of me.

Anyways, back to writing papers. Hope all is well and Turkey Day was great!
