In the entire world, at exactly 12 midnight of 25 December XXXX, everyone will celebrate or make a countdown of Christmas. But why is everyone celebrating Christmas? is still a question that I'm wondering about for the past few years.I asked many friends, families and random people on their opinion of celebrating Christmas and here is what they say ; It's a fun festival, It's a festival that requires us to trade and share presents, "SANTA CLAUS" It's a time of sharing and giving, It's the coolest festival alive and finally the birth of Jesus Christ. Regardless of all the answers above, what's really hurting is that everyone thinks that It's a festival and I feel very offended when someone celebrating Christmas as a festival!!! Many people shops around with many pressure and tension of getting presents for their family and friends and why I ask them...they answered "that what christmas is for!! the presents!!! I feel it's pretty stupid and it's making fun of the Christmas day!!!!
Some other people are believing in the icon of Frosty, Christmas Tree, Gingerbread and SANTA CLAUS!!! in which part of Christ's birth that all this character played part at that time??? Frosty is just a snowman icon that is created by human hands!!!How are an old silk hat, corn cob pipe, button nose, and boots related to the birth of Christ?????
Another things that annoys me is Santa Claus!!! Why is he bigger then the real meaning of Christmas? Coca Cola(R)invented him and till now, everyone is singing "Jolly old ST.Nicholas" and why? cause he come's in people's chimney and gives Present with his magic power!!!Such a Bull shit which I cannot tolerate or understand!!!!
Why no one use angel, the three kings, the shepherds and animals as an icon of Christmas? all this were there when Christ was born!
I would totally understand if other people act stupidly towards this but the Christians themselves also do this!!! The Birth of Christ is not a festival but it's suppose to be a day of Joy that He is Born, Hope that He brings to the world, Loves that are given by Him, and He is the Savior or the promised people. Isn't that what we sing "For we are a chosen race, A royal Priesthood, Holy Nation" I hope people will start doing the right thing about this holy day and joyous occasion.
So to the person that is reading this, Just ask yourself ; if you know what you are doing is wrong and you still do it...what that makes you then?
