Just got back from midnight service where we sang o come all ye faithful which praises christ for not abhoring the virgin womb.

I'm an atheist but culturally Christian and have sung those lyrics throughout my childhood without a second thought but they're awful aren't they?

Is a belief in the abhorrence of wombs central to Christianity or is it time to bin that verse, just as that verse from all things bright and beautiful about everyone staying in their place was binned?

it was like being at a Whitney concert and they even let us clap and dance a little.

This fills me with absolute and utter horror.

Entertainment should be for concerts, church for church

Hymns in general and carols in particular can be both beautiful songs and in various ways daft/funny/anachronistic.
'In the bleak midwinter' has a choice of lovely tunes but little grasp of meteorology in Bethlehem.

Or that its landlocked? Is that right
