I live in Bangalore (80%+ Hindu), they celebrate Christmas, Halloween, Easter as well as the Hindu, Muslim and local south Indian festivals. Any excuse for a Biryani! When Christians exclaim the real meaning of Christmas, I'm never sure what that really means. The real meaning is rooted in a pagan festival from Northern Europe where people do things to excess becuase they are so miserable at not getting enough Sunlight. Sure I'm up for that who doesn't like presents and turkey anyway?
