How Christmas Ought To Be Celebrated by Jossyroyal1: 8:03am On Dec 28, 2015
Chrismas may have come and gone but this thread serves as a reactive and proactive measure at the same time to guide us rightfully in future celebration Christmas, Easter etc.


And this was how the much anticipated Christmas 2015 came and gone down into history's archive but it might not interest you to know that many homes would have been broken, many relationship ended and friendship got shredded as well perhaps because a party could not meet up with the other party's expectations, request or demands.

*********Lets Paint a Scenery From a couple's perspective******************************************

A man for instance, whose wife is competitive in nature having gazed at her neighbor's massive and explosive preparation towards christmas by landing Cutes wears for their kids, new appliances and electronics for the home, stocked their freezer with asorted drinks and several type of frozen foods and shrimps and seeing her husband's inability to meet up will only provoke nothing but undue insults, tongue lashing or bashing from the wife.. You will hear bashing such like '' are u not a man or can't u see baba Alimatu?? You are notin but an Infidel.... Lazy man, gud 4 nothing'' and the man been unable to or curtail or forebear the tongue lashing frm his mistress will bounce on her and teach her some lessons... At the end of the day, a looming call for separation is made...

*****************************************************
A girlfrnd on the flip side of our scenario would have made her wish list for Christmas... Lets take a peep.. A new fitting dress, nice shoes to match, a wrist watch, necklaces, she might want a trending smartphone and u still have to make her hair do....... O jesus...! (Sign of the cross...) WTF...? Is it ur birthday?? Its not for Christ sake... It's christmas! And when her guy is unable to meet up.. You know the rest of the story.

*****************************************************
5days ago, i was in a similar dilemma when i was chit chatting with a lady and she went like ''baby i need money to celebrate Xmas o'' and after Brainstorming for a couple of minutes, i just told her ''My dear.... God will provide for himself..... Chrismas is his birthday'' having seen that, she didnt reply me for some hours afterwhich she later responded by typing ''Amen'' I knew that didnt go down well with her but she must have to accept the fact.

*******How is Christmas supposed to be celebrated??*******

Well, to be sincere, i cannot clearly distinguish between St. Valentine's day and Christmas.. Seems pple do worst things on Christmas day than Valentine's day... Hmmmmm! Irony. Its a fact that hotel rooms are usually fully booked on Xmas days... Club houses makes lotta profit on same day,Beach party are organised well attended, Cinemas filled to capacity, Event centers overcrowded, Eatery Restaurants and Bars, contraceptives(condoms), postenols et al are not left out of high sales...
Now find sincere answers to d following questions.
1. Who is Jesus Christ?
2. Why did he come?
3. Why was he killed?
4. Is Jesus coming back?
How yhu ought to celebrrate Christmas

** On a typical Dec 25th, yhu shud be isolated in a quiet place and reflect on ur life, pray and appreciate thee almighty God for sending his son Jesus to come and redeem us from sin and perhaps understand the the essence of Christmas, make ammendments if need be, set ur track straight and remain rapturable....
God bless you for reading.

I think you are wrong Op. I am not a Christian per-se but I have an extensive knowledge of it.


Easter should be celebrated like this and not Christmas. Since it is a maxim among Christians that Dec25 is the born day of their leader, It is only proper to merry and celebrate, and not some sober reflection as you said.

Christmas shouldn't be a religious lamentation and ritual. It should be a feast and an occasion.
