I don't celebrate holidays as religious. I celebrate the death,burial and resurrection every day of my life. Not on days designed ages ago by the Catholic church. I see no evidence Jesus was born even in this month. I don't need a holiday to celebrate what I feel I should every day. I celebrate these as tradition and for the kids

I will steer clear of the 'should be'. As with any holiday, the detailslife celpltion should be up to those doing the celebrating.

For me, however, it was about Santa for my kids when we were all younger. As I have aged and watched the consumerism grow and the humanity decrease and started doing more spiritual interspection,,,it is about Christ the Savior.

Once my child figured out the whole Santa Thing, i started explaining to her the Jesus Christ 'thing',,lol

and she now understands that as the reason for our celebrating Christmas,, although we still do the symbolic gift giving

What is so important about December 25th!! For a Start Christ Jesus was not Born on this day, because it would be Winter in the North of the Equator!! The Shephard were out in the Fields, when Christ Jesus was Born!!

Matthew 2:1-12 tells us that Christ Jesus was a child (Matthew 2:9), when the Magi meet Christ Jesus, which was December 25 to give HIM (Christ Jesus) Gifts of Gold; Incense and Myrrh!! In Remembrance of this occasion Christian give Gifts on this day as did the Magi, when they meet Christ Jesus as a child!!

Very true, Christmas is a "celebration" of Jesus' birth. There is no possible way to know exactly what day he was born. As there weren't "birth certificates" or documents on when people were born in those days. Especially on the level Jesus was born into a family of "peasants" basically in the hierarchy of the culture then. "Christmas" in itself may be a "stolen" day from pagans. But nevertheless that's not the reason it's celebrated, it's celebrated in the birth of our Christ. It would revolve around the "intentions" of the celebration. Jesus never told us to celebrate or even keep in remembrance of when he was born best I can remember. The key day to keep in celebration all in all is Easter, the day he was "resurrected" and again I know that's probably not the exact day he was resurrected, but is seen, kept, and celebrated in the honor of such. The day death was defeated for all.

Could say Christmas has no real big spiritual significance. But it's kind of a catch22. His birth didn't bring anything specific to us except him, if his birth hadn't happened, his resurrection very well couldn't have happened. Thus we have chosen to celebrate it's significance in just that.

Jesus of course. What gives with this question?

Just curious.

Well.... does seem like most people across the world celebrate Santa Claus .

Hey godsfriend, how's it hanging? Not seen you for a while?
Well, I'm not what you call religious but as most giving days and celebratory days they have been hijacked by the commercial sector. In one it's bad but in another way it does still bring attention to the reason for that day all be it in a round about way. imo, santa brings the presents as did the 3 kings!
Keep on doing what you're doing
