Do you celebrate Christmas?

Question

I mean honestly...

I don't, and no I'm not an atheist , Jew, or some other religion. It's just too much stress, and it's just silly how everyone acts if they don't get the right gift. I jut choose not to celebrate it.

I do come from a Christian home, and I do believe in God. We just don't celebrate it.

Answer 1

yea! I do it would suck not to celebrate love and happiness

Answer 2

You have the right to not celebrate Christmas. Actually, it's so commercial now that people forget what the true meaning is. I make sure to teach my children about the true meaning of Christmas. I don't blame people for not wanting to celebrate. It makes me mad when I'm out at the store and people are in their "Christmas shopping" and acting like a bunch of idiots. There is no reason for people to be rude. Besides in the bible, it only states to celebrate two occasions. One is the passover and the other is Christ's resurrection. Thank you and GOD bless.

Answer 3

In a religious sense, no. I come from a Christian home but we're pretty much all atheists. We still celebrate Christmas though, for the fun of having all the family gathered together.

Answer 4

Yes, I do. I come from a Catholic Christian family. My parents raised us to not care about the gifts very much, but to enjoy the family and the kindness.
When we went to my grandma's house, all my cousins would start opening at the same time so it would be over in like 2 minutes. My siblings and I would go over to whomever the gift was from, and open it by them so we could thank them.

I can see why you wouldn't want to celebrate Christmas if the people you gave gifts to were like my cousins.

Answer 5

I also come from a Christian home and believe in God, but yes, I do celebrate Christmas. As Christians' shouldn't we celebrate Jesus' birthday?

Answer 6

I do, but...most of the fanfare is for my daughter. I'd prefer a nice quiet Christmas, but that's pretty much impossible. I do have a tree with my favorite ornaments on it, I adore Christmas music, and I like stockings because you can stuff lots of little things in them, but I like the peaceful part of Christmas; I can't stand the commercialism or the drama....I'd rather be out having a kegger or a barbecue than a fancy family dinner, really.

Answer 7

i celebrate Christmas it's a great time to celebrate jesus's birth, even though he wasn't actually born on Christmas day, it's EXTREME FUN Don't miss out on the happiness

PS if you celebrate another holiday that's OK

Answer 8

I'm an agnostic - but I celebrate Xmas. For me it's nonrelgious, but a way to touch base with my family and friends, to show how much I love them and appreciate them. I try very hard not to go overboard - but it is wonderful being with those you love in front of the christmas tree unwrapping gifts.

Answer 9

Yes we celebrate Christmas.

Answer 10

Of course i celebrate Christmas. I don't let bad drivers or bad shoppers or the hustle and bustle of the season get me down. It is all worth it on Christmas Day to see my family and see them smile when they open a gift from me.

Answer 11

yes....I do celebrate it. I am a Buddhist......the important thing here is how I celebrate it. Well I shall tell you , i celebrate my birthday in the same way....I GIVE presents on both occasions! I understand that youdon't celebrate it...i see this time of year as a time of reflection, self reflection and all of it matters to me. Happy Holidays to you!!!!!!!
