Many seem to believe that Christmas is not a Christian Holiday. They point to the fact that Jesus' birthday was not actually on December 25 and that that date was actually a pagan holiday. They believe that many of our Christmas traditions have pagan roots. While that is certainly true, I'm not convinced that it necessarily follows that celebrating Christmas is inherently evil. The first link I am posting outlines the position of the no-Christmas believers. The second two links give a well thought out rebuttal to that stand.

I will be celebrating Christmas with my family this December 25. What I am celebrating is the birth of my Savior with a full and grateful heart.
