When all is said and done 90+% of the area is free to watch from, and when you go home your a few bucks better off than the people who paid to see the same show as you.
What's the problem? |

There is no problem! And the people are not paying to see the same show. They are paying for reserved seating, drinks and appetizers. They are doing it because they want to.... not because they have to. The people blinded by hate can't understand that.

Some posters have said that these events will benefit a charity. The Villages entertainment website does not indicate anything about ticket proceeds going to charity. Although, other events listed on their website specifically name a charity to receive proceeds. The Villages office could not verify that this is a charity event. Can someone provide information about the source of this information and which charity will benefit?

I'm not even Pagan and I consider it offensive. But I pick my battles, and accept that most Americans have chosen to ignore the actual history of the things they claim to represent their religions, and instead focus on the pretty parts of it. Which is - "sparkly lights on a big green tree." That is what I have chosen to allow it to mean, to me. Your mileage may vary. I wouldn't pay $50 to witness the lighting, but I might come to my local square to enjoy the entertainment on face value. For free. Which is what everyone can do. |

Yes, you are right. Great evil has been done by certain people in the name of religion. And nothing can excuse it. It is not only one religion that is at fault either.
I had a professor at university who belonged to a faith that is well known for its great hatred towards others. But he took the best elements from that faith and lived them throughout his life. Every time I want to get upset by people who follow that faith I remember my professor and I know that it is how each individual understands their faith and live by it, what really counts. Actually, now that I think of it, there are some faiths which hold the entire group accountable. I would assume then the same idea applies to the whole group. |

I'm not going to the Christmas tree lighting because it's going to be too darn crowded for me to enjoy. I'll wait a week and then go.

Watch it on your computer. I went to LSL once for tree lighting, probably around 2011 and never went again, it's no big deal.

They are every year. You only have to wait a night and less crowds.
