Eh.

My brother-you know the one who's into conspiracy theories and stuff-thinks it's bad to celebrate Christmas because it's a pagan holiday. *le sigh*

I have heard that from others - I prefer to wish Jesus a Happy Birthday though, than ignore it (even if the date is wrong ... another argument)

Keep the Saturn in Saturnalia!

Up until I was four, Christmas was just a day where you got presents. Oh, and there was a fat dude in a red suit.

Then we were asked what we wanted to believe in, Santa, or Jesus.

Us kids chose Jesus, and have done ever since.

It's not a pagan holiday to us. To us it's a day of being together and celebrating life, but more importantly the birth of our Savior.

But it is up to everyone what they believe I guess.

Oh wow. I have heard that from a lot of people. I think it's just a bit much, personally. C'mon, who doesn't like getting presents?
