I realize that.

The question is:

ahem.....

Do you give gifts? The reason they give gifts is to celebrate the birth as did the 3 wise men in the bible.
this is a dumb question and i'll tell you why....

many would like us to believe that this holiday is for religious reasons... it is not. its is so far from christian its retarded. the entire season should be called the SEASON FOR SINNING... xmas is about corp/personl greed you exchange/recieve gifts which $ value are 100% more important then the religious aspect of it. if it was religious you would be offering nothing but gifts to god

its is a pagan holiday turn christian holiday, only reason why is b/c it was a way to try to conform pagans... you, i, and the 99.9% of everyone else celebrates it b/c your family/friends did and you shall inherit those customs.

xmas isn't just a holiday for christians and to say that is the reason for it is just blinding the truth w/ words.
