As much as I do love A Charlie Brown Christmas, the ultimate message of the piece is that commercialism is obscuring the true meaning of Christmas: our lord and savior Jesus Christ.
Well they do all come together as a community, which is the part I love about the special, and then Linus reads the bible for Chuck to remind him what Christmas is all about. It's a lovely little story, but it is explicitly Christian.
I feel like they lampshade it a little in the following year's It's The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown. In that one, Linus is the only kid who believes in the mythical Halloween spirit the Great Pumpkin.
wait why don't people like charlie brown christmas? I'm so confused
Lucy repeatedly pulling the football away from Charlie Brown is a classic trope of misandrist abuse 💅

is it explicitly Jesus or is it like "we all come together as a community"?
