When Can We Sing Christmas Carols?

The Family Circus' persistent pollyannaish, 1950's era view of the world means I have little interest in the comic.

But because of those traits the strip periodically shows up on The Comics Curmudgeon. Today's appearance was particularly funny, especially when you consider the Curmudgeon's comments:

family circus for 11.21.2007
"A good way to keep Dolly in line is to keep her ignorant of actual theology and just tell her that things that annoy you are sins that will damn her soul to hell for all eternity. Other sins in the Keane household: running in the house, staying up past eight o’clock, talking while mommy and daddy are trying to watch TV, and singing Christmas carols at any time."
