Christmas, like any other winter solstice holiday, is mostly about bringing the family together to have a good time, good food, and probably presents. Schools close down, and most people are off work. Few better opportunities to reconnect with people you may not see very often.

For those in the know, Jesus' birthday wasn't originally on December 25th anyway. So why should I care?
