Jesus date of birth is not recorded in scripture

The 25th December was the birthday of a god whose emblem was a cross... go figure!

Jesus death and ransom is what is important, not really the day he was born. It keeps the perception of him as a helpless baby It's a commercial trap that encourages gift giving to receive and I've seen too many ungrateful people to think I'm missing out on anything important

Here's another
[b]To me, Christmas is an over-glorified "holiday", that, according to Old Christmas Songs, Is, SUPPOSEDLY, the "Most Wonderful Time of The Year", when, in reality, it's not and is just a bunch of fabricated lies, so that those big-name companies, can fatten their wallets, with money. Money that we give them.

Also, Christmas brings out THE ABSOLUTE WORST, in people. Happiness? Ha! Greed is what Christmas is really about: Wasting your hard-earned money, on stuff that you don't really need and are better off without. Plus, who's to say, that after Christmas is over, the stuff that you either bought or received, ends up not being used, gets broken or thrown away OR you end up returning it? These are all possibilities.
Another bad thing, about Christmas, is: Decorations. So much effort and time gets put into it, yet, when the holidays are over and we celebrate the new year, the novelty of those decorations, soon wears off and is taken down. Plus, whatever holiday stuff happened, its novelty soon wears off, too. Basically, it was all for nothing.

Also, do you want to know, what REALLY irks me, about Christmas? Donations. Preparation. Cooking. Big Meals. None of which I do, thankfully. Christmas is just, basically, Thanksgiving, but in the month of December and with gifts, that you may or may not even want. Plus, the stuff that you "want for Christmas", you can just buy, with your own money, which makes this "holiday" even more fake, pointless and unrealistic.

That's why I don't celebrate Christmas. Not anymore. Because I outgrew it. If I want stuff, I can always save up the money I need and buy it, when I have the money.[/b]

Story for the gods.That one is for Jehovah's Witness members, a church that turns the Bible upside down.As for me,I will celebrate Christmas till am gone.

I celebrate Christmas.... I gather with friends and family on that day to eat, and drink and be Merry.

Christmas is a pagan/secular holiday to be celebrated as you would anything else without dragging the name of God or Jesus Christ into it.... it is sin to do so.

Merry Christmas and good tidings to all!
