I hate traveling and being dragged around by my parents to meet different sets of reletives.  I was hoping we weren't going to do that this year, but we might anyway.  :clapping:  And we've been planning not to since LAST Christmas!

Ha! That's a joke. We'd kill each other is why. I don't think we even know of a house big enough to comfortably hold my family. And if I'm to spend any time with my non-immediate family, I have to leave Minnesota and go down to Hicksville, Kansas.

i hate how people complain about it being religious... when its called christmas for christ sake.. if u dont believe in christ then why do u even bother with christmas?.... its like celebrating hanukkah when your not a jew then complaing about it being religious lol.

Christmas was originally a Pagan holiday, iirc. Also, Jesus was born in the fall, not winter. Though I see your point. Christmas isn't really religious anymore anyway.

when was christmas a pagan holiday? anyways every christian knows that jesus wasnt born in on december 25th... the fact is we have no idea. So we just picked a day in the middle of the winter to make people celebrate his birth even though it wasnt his birth day but just a day out of the year to celebrate it anyways. Also how can u say its not a religious holiday anymore when most people go to church on christmas then anyother day... haha kinda funny how people can be...

The Babylonians celebrated something about the Goddess of Nature on Dec. 25 which included big feasts, gift giving, and just being Merry. And also during Europe before the supposed birth of Christ, there were such festivities like Yule which was celebration of Mithras, the Sun God. Hell, even Easter has pagan roots since it comes from the word Eostra, goddess of Spring, who was celebrated at that time of the year.

 

But even so, it's still a Christian religious holiday. It's a flocking Day of Obligation and it's probably one of the only ones most Christians observe (probably without knowing it's a day of obligation)! That's why we don't celebrate it, my parents wouldn't want a whole bunch of Christians shitting all over our religious holidays by completely commercializing it. Actually, I wouldn't mind celebrating Hannukah since I like the Jewish faith the most, they have no Hell. :)

 

I think everyone should watch The Charlie Brown Christmas Special to learn the true meaning of Christmas.
