Are you celebrating Christmas?
#8
RE: Are you celebrating Christmas?
I celebrate 'christmas' but it has no religious meaning for me, its just that this time of year is miserable and 'christmas' cheers it up.
It may as well be called winterval, saturnalia the winter sostice or one of the many other festivals that have always been celebrated at this time of year.
The seperation of religion from christmas is something that the puritans recognised which was why Cromwell, a religious nut, banned it.



You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
