Matthew 7:11 If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask him!
The bible doesn’t say anything about giving Christmas presents because Christmas is entirely about celebrating Jesus’ birth. Jesus wasn’t born yet! LolHowever, the bible does teach about giving, and furthermore, jesus himself, said that if asked for a cloak, you give him your jacket also (if I remember either.)
Linus should have said, “The Bible says nothing about HAVING to give anyone Christmas presents.” I’ve had people come at me many times over the years with what is allegedly in the Bible, or their erroneous interpretations of Bible content. I’m SO glad that I’ve taken the time to actually study the Bible! It makes it easy to put these people in check!

Lucy, surely the Bible has a thing or two to say about “greed” and "avarice’. ;P

I think Lucy will find the loophole by mentioning the wise men giving the Christ child gold, frankincense, and myrrh

Well, there is nothing that mandates giving Christmas gifts.

The Bible has been misquoted exponentially, sometimes with dire consequences, for as long as there has been one.

Well, if he wants gifts himself … “do unto others as you would have them do unto you.”

True. The Bible says nothing about Christmas. That was invented centuries later.

The Bible? What’s that?

Lucy, you should listen to Linus’ speech about the Jesus story.

Now is this the point where Lucy looks for the word sister in the Bible and claims that’s proof she has to get a present?
