Beingmas

Beingmas: noun. The festival proposed by Maximilien Robespierre to replace Christmas in Revolutionary France after having removed all other religions and replacing them with the Cult of the Supreme Being, which was obviously better than the Cult of Reason. Beingmas was meant to include such highlights as bread with powdered sugar and water with a slight touch of gooseberry. The idea became an instant hit with the people of Revolutionary France.
