Christmas??

do non believers celebrate CHRISTMAS? if so, why? just to get gifts? keep in mind that it is CHRISTmas... key word CHRIST..Christmas??Mainly nonbelievers celebreate xmas all year long.



Unlike beleivers who tend to be extra 'christian' during the holidays...and tend to be 'nonchristian' the rest of the time.



Especially those who overdo the 'decorations,etc'.Christmas??
As a christian myself, I have found both nonbelievers %26amp; believers often overdo the celebrating...(and I mean comments %26amp; actions, not the partying).

Report Abuse

Christmas??hello? Christmas is a Pagan holidayChristmas??
Keep in mind the thought of Christmas, sharingChristmas??I don't celebrate the supposed birth of your christ, no.



I celebrate the traditions my family has had for years and my personal "celebration" part is that I enjoy the season; it's pretty with the lights and the snow, people are usually nice, giving presents is fun (so is receiving), I get time off of work, etc...

We are having two celebrations this year-one on the 17th and one on the 25th. Would it make you feel better if I chose the last day of hannakah to do this?
Does not matter what you call it, its celebration is taken from many sources. I just call it Xmas.Christmas??
Learn the history and you'll understand why pagans celebrate at that time of the year. Do you not pay attentiona at all? Or can you not comprehend anything that doesn't come out of the mouth of your lying priest's mouth?
Are you kidding?!



Corporate America hounds us till we buy a boat load of crap for Christmas.



Man I'm gettin' tired of this...Christmas??
Sure, it's a fun gig. And as mentioned in previous answers, it actually started as a Pagan holiday, like Easter.
No. Christmas is about Satan, I mean Santa Claus who only gives you gifts if your good. I mean what better message to send to kids instead of Jesus being born on this Earth and giving us the free gift of eternal life despite being naughty people. Isn't lying to your children about an obese man who breaks into your house at night and judges your children a better story to tell?
Christians stole the holiday of winter solstice and re-named it Christmas.



Just like they stole the winter solstice holiday of people in the southern hemisphere and re-named it St John's Day.



Note--the Bible gives no birthdate for Christ (or St John).
"KEEP IN MIND" CHRISTMAS IS A PAGAN HOLIDAY AND IS SAID TO BE THE BIRTHDAY OF NIMROD AND NOT JESUS
Google it.. it has nothing to do with Christ..

Google , Origin of Christmas..

You'll see how it got started and its all so shocking ..

I didn't believe it till I read if for myself..

Here is a good website that will give you fact and not religion..

http://www.thercg.org/books/ttooc.html

Its alot of info it take in, but WELL worth the time.



2 Corinthians 6; 17-18

and



Jeremiah 10:2-5



Thus saith the LORD, Learn not the way of the heathen, and be not dismayed at the signs of heaven; for the heathen are dismayed at them. [3] For the customs of the people are vain: for one cutteth a tree out of the forest, the work of the hands of the workman, with the axe. [4] They deck it with silver and with gold; they fasten it with nails and with hammers, that it move not. [5] They are upright as the palm tree, but speak not: they must needs be borne, because they cannot go. Be not afraid of them; for they cannot do evil, neither also is it in them to do good.



They were doing what we now call "Christmas"..

read and study this! ITs a major eye opening thing!
By coincidence, it is the same darn day that Mr. Hanky comes to visit our family. Go figure.....
Although some people consider it strictly as a religious holiday and holy day, most people consider it a cultural holiday as well in North American and Europe. Many non-Christians celebrate Christmas as a cultural holiday and put up Christmas lights, Christmas tree and exchange gifts, etc. Yule is a pagan holiday that has been celebrated far longer than Christmas and most of the traditions of Christmas are pagan.
Anybody can celebrate the Yuletide.



Christians really didn't know exactly when Jesus was born. So theyhijacked the pagan fest of Saturnia and tried to Christianize it. Before this it was called the fest of the unquenchable sun. It was set when the days were no longer getting shorter but you could just barely tell they were starting to get longer again.



The use of evergreens, Yule logs, lights, gifts, parties, drinking spirits, egg-nog, and more had no Christian origin. They came from the pagan period.



Nowadays, the same season celebrates Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanza, etc... So, is the Christmas season, really, really about Christ??? Maybe not exactly.
Christmas is a pagan holiday. And yes, I, as a non believer celebrate it. It really has nothing to do with Christianity or the celebration of Christ. It's a purely commercialized holiday. I celebrate to give and receive gifts and spend time with family.
I know of a few who are non-religous, but celibrate Christmas. It's the spirir of the holiday in general. It has nothing to do with getting more loot.
