          How Do You Think Christmas Must Be Celebrated?


Christmas is celebrated to commemorate the birth of Jesus Christ who according to the Catholic Church and many other religions is the son of God. The name of Christmas comes from the Mass of Jesus. In a communion it is where Christians remember that Jesus died for us. Most people in the world celebrate Christmas whether they are Christians or of another religion, Christmas is one of the most important celebrations of the year, Christmas has no exact way to be celebrated and depends a lot on the customs of each family .

In religion, Christmas should be celebrated with a miracle symbol for the birth of Jesus, try to reunite all families to be in tranquility and harmony. Christmas also tries to reconcile others and ourselves. In several places in the world, some traditions are going to church and singing Christmas carols with friends and family. Try to get closer to religion by the miracles that happened
 
When the time of Christmas arrives, not all people have the possibility to receive or buy gifts. This depends on your economy at the moment. Most people decorate their house with Christmas decorations, cribs and saplings that is the traditional Christmas. In my opinion, Christmas is a time that should be spent with the family to be grateful that they could spend a time like Christmas one more year with them and celebrate the birth of the baby Jesus doing the novena, singing Christmas carols, and being all in harmony

                  Chrismas: comercial date or religious practice

Christmas is a religious holiday that is celebrated to remember and commemorate the birth of Jesus Christ, people throughout the world celebrate Christmas, whether Christians or not. It is the moment when families and friends get together and remember the good things. People, and especially children, also like Christmas, as it is a time when you give and receive gifts. For some families this is a very important date because they take advantage of it and teach their children and family members the true reason why Christmas is celebrated and how it should be celebrated.

Some people become sad at Christmas when they think about their loved ones who died or who will be able to return home for various reasons, people who can not give gifts to their children and their family for them Christmas is a time that is sad for them that some campaigns help those who need it most so they can have a gift or a meal. Christmas in our country is more religious because in each house or in most we can see the Christmas tree, a manger and houses decorated with Christmas decorations, in most of the world on December 25 is a holiday because according to the churches and some religions that was the day that the child Jesus was born

For some people who do not celebrate these festivities they use it to promote and increase their income in their economic part because Christmas is the time also  children, youth and adults can or do acquire what they want, because of that the merchants use that to their please to sell products because they know that some people will buy it

Different parts of the world have their traditions, everywhere is not celebrated equally but if for the same reason, for me Christmas is a time where friends and families to share a few happy moments, Christmas is a holiday as both religious and commercial

                                             Euthanasia


Euthanasia must be considered a natural right, such as the right to eat, breathe, love and walk freely on earth. However, society has had to fight hard to be able to exercise the free decision to live or die whenever we want, owing to moral and especially religious prejudices.
Colombia, a country where it is common to die in war, in a confrontation or in the 
emergency waiting room, churches like the catholic qualify as “morally unacceptable” 
that the Ministry of Health, finally, enforce a Judgment of the Constitutional Court so 
that small percent of colombians can benefit from active euthanasia, and it makes 
even less sense that euthanasia, applied under the strictest and most complicated 
conditions as established by the ministry, is described as a legacy of Nazism. 
It is incredible too, that in the 21st century and in a state of law as it claims to
be ours, pulpits and shysters are used to prevent that an elderly person,
rational and free, suffering from a terminal illness or victim of dreadful and
irredeemable sufferings, may have the help of a professional to finish worthily
with his life, if he or she desires. 

Paradoxical, equally, to know that if a rational being has a little animal
 that suffers from an illness that can not be cured, he would be accused of cruelty if he does not 
practice euthanasia; However, if that rational being is the one who suffers from a 
mortal and traumatic condition, endorsed by professional criteria of other rational
 beings, there are those who consider morally condemnable his death by piety. 
Moreover, there are those who struggle with all their anger and public power so that
 these professionals must be treated as murderers. In spite of all this, there are those 
who celebrate the resolution of the Ministry of Health that establishes protocols for 
voluntary euthanasia in Colombia. We consider it a step, even if it is timid and raises
 legal doubts to solve.

Nicolás Maduro

With his popularity battered by food shortages, economic chaos and rampant crime, it is hard to understand how Venezuela’s president, Nicolas Maduro has clung to power and why he is still there. What is keeping the socialist leader in place as his country is collapsing? And when, if ever, will Venezuela reach the tipping point? There are many questions about Maduro and his actions ever since and more these past years, when the world changed the perspective about the great Venezuela. But who is that man called “president”? Nicolás Maduro Moros is the 63rd President of Venezuela. Having assumed office in 2013, he has proven to be a highly controversial leader. He has been criticized and accused of being dictatorial, which has led to a severe decline in Venezuela's not just in social aspects but also affecting the economic situation, along with rising crime, inflation, poverty and hunger. Before he became a politician, he had worked for several years as a bus driver. In this position, he became a union leader and soon ventured into the mainstream of politics. In 2000, he was elected to the National Assembly. Nicolas Maduro, despite not knowing any foreign language, had also served as Foreign Minister of Venezuela for a period of six years, after which he was appointed Vice President by then President Hugo Chávez. Later, when Chavez had cancer, he realized that he might not survive, he decided that Maduro would succeed him. Since Maduro assumed the presidency, he has continued the policies of his predecessor. His government has been criticized by the media, and has also led to nationwide protests, which led to many disturbs. Despite these incidents, Maduro has continued as president, however, his current lack of popularity and his erratic behavior as a commander in chief should determine that Maduro is not up to be in such a role, rather than continuing being the clown he is.

Now, for those who actually claim that Nicolas Maduro is a madman, a look at his previous actions should be taken in order to determine not to take him serious, belittling him, which is what he is precisely looking for. That is his strategy to mislead opponents. Venezuela’s President Nicolás Maduro, like his mentor Hugo Chavez, is usually known as crazy for what he says and for what he does. And this is because he is often illogical, irresponsible and goes against all common sense that does not give to think more. But there is no worse mistake than to believe that he is gross or crazy. Maduro shows the world that he is a stupid man. He learned from Chavez the art of saying what he does not think, what he does not believe, what is inexplicable, the opposite of truth and the evidence without the least shame. Maduro is not insane or stupid as much as he tries to make us believe. He is ignorant, that is something different. The only thing he cannot dissimulate is his infinite ignorance in confusing a call for help with a pronoun, being illiterate with literacy, the genre of words and measures of length with those of time, without cultural behaviors that produces shame for others.

Instead, Venezuela’s president has taken advantage of the situation to get to where he is. According to the dictionary  cunning means clever, in the sense of trickery. Because it is needed to be very clever and also to be cunning to start working as one of the Caracas subway driver and then turn to be a country president. All he did was to climb positions, to seek and take advantage of opportunities, to remove potential rivals out of the way and only God knows about what else he has done and what he plans to do. Cunning is jointed with the word cynicism, defined by the same dictionary as, "shamelessness in lying or in the defense and practice of vituperable actions or doctrines." That cunning and cynicism puts him at the service of a cause: to remain in power. Maduro and his mafia of smugglers, drug dealers and corrupt already have a plan A, B, C and until Z to destabilize the next legislative elections in Venezuela, in which they would lose the majority of the parliament.

 And as part of his perverse script will be invented any excuse, no matter how incredible it sounds, to set up confrontations with Colombia, Spain, United States, or anyone who is not with his interests.
