If you want to celebrate the Birth of Christ or whatever it is you believe...go for it. Just don't rain on my parade, or the Jews, Muslims, Druids, etc
Happy Holidays

To reiterate what others have said, I celebrate Christmas as a time for family, love and brotherhood...it corresponds with our celebration of Yule (Winter Solstice)....one of eight sabbats which equally divide the "Wheel of the Year". History tells us that early Christians set the birth of Christ close to the Winter Solstice to avoid persecution, from our point of view, any celebration of peace, love, brotherhood and belief in the Almighty is worthwhile.
