There is no Christ in Christmas! Thank you Alicia, I wish there were more people like you and your husband! I am a born again. No one understands why I don’t celebrate Christmas. The only gift I try to give each year is, Jesus. Have a safe holiday! Lisa ✝️☦️🙏🏻🤗

No Christmas for me, The Messiah wasn't born on Christmas day, and I prefer to see Him as The Son of GOD who He is, not a babe in a manger.

Santa is an anagram of satan Claus /claws, so no thanks.

It seems that every Christmas, some insensitive person has to come up with all the good reasons why Christians should throw Christmas away! Hundreds of millions of Christians around the world choose December 25 to celebrate the birth of Jesus. OK it is the winter solstice, when the days start to get longer; a hope for a new year of growth in all aspects; spiritual, health, relationship, prosperity etc. And sure, there are a lot of historical coincidences to this time of year such as Nimrod, various Nordic cultures and of course Pagan nasty practices. Christians however don't take part in these, they celebrate strictly the birth of Jesus. And whether or not it was Jesus's actual birthday is of zero significance. I think it would be far more useful to object to the commercialization of Christmas rather than propose to cancel Christmas altogether! I don't care what anyone says, Christmas is a good time of the year to celebrate the birth of Jesus, to get together with family and loved ones, to reminisce, to hope and to pray. But no, some literally want to throw the baby Jesus out with the bathwater! Please, let's have some sensitivity and not be pedantic and ideological! Own Christmas and make it for yourself and for your families the time of year to celebrate Jesus, the Son of God, the Saviour, the Rescuer and Good Shepherd!
