Oh, jingle bells, jingle bells

I can spend time with my family, when I want.

Not everyone will be able to do this. Well, your parents might live... hours away from you! You have at least... more time to spend time with family and friends. Or, Just to have a relaxing and enjoyable break.

But seriously, why do even bother to view christmas as a Religion? It's Just a traditional seasonal event, the same for New Year's Eve!

The same procedure as every year. lulz

My brother lives 600 miles away from me, I see him at least twice a year, which neither of those times are anywhere near Christmas. I haven't seen my brother at christmas for at least 17 years, and guess what, I'm not even bothered? But that doesn't mean we're not close though.

I work over Christmas, have worked Christmas day for the last 3 years. It doesn't even bother me in the slightest.

But never mind, I'm a grinch, scrooge and whatever other names people come up with, I'm just an atheist, who doesn't want to celebrate a holiday, that has no meaning to me

I mean really. I'm not in the least bit religious... but I still say "Merry Christmas"
and I'm atheist. It's family that matters to me, and I enjoy the break. "And that's it!

so my family doesn't mean anything to me, because I don't enjoy Christmas, I see my all my family once a week, my mum perhaps twice a week. And some people don't get a break over Christmas, I just don't see the point of all this.

Nah I didn't said that. If your parent/friends lives nearby, you might be able to spend time more.
But still... you would have more time to be with them, Not Just one day.
Well, If you are still living at home with your parents... It would be the same thing.

Of course, But some people would have a chance to have a break. And you can also take a break if you wish. xD
But, I'm sure some/and kids would enjoy a little break from "work or school" doing something else.
Seriously, christmas really isn't about religious anymore, Only.. If you believe it is! lulz

Christmas is always about religion, its just you, or anyone else has made it about something else.

[*BlackFox]

Christmas is always about religion

No way!

You are celebrating jesus' birthday at the end of the day... I'd much rather celebrate my own birthday! Hah...

[*BlackFox]

I don't celebrate anything. Christmas isn't about religion to me.
And I don't give a crap about any religion. I Just enjoy the free days. LULZ

Screw jesus, I'm celebrating an excuse for a vacation and an excuse for a bit more interesting food than usual.
Oh and presents!

There's 2 types of christmas.
- Religious Christmas
- Coca Cola Christmas with the red fat santa.

Most people like the latter and ignore the former nowadays.

[TheDrop]

^True, I'm not even Christian and I celebrate Christmas (to a degree..). Even most Hindu holidays its more about family gathering & tradition than religion

This bump... is Just a reminder!
