Let me just say this --
More than the religious aspect of Christmas, the psychological and emotional effects the holidays have on us are reasons enough to celebrate. I'm not so sure about December 25 as being the actual birth of Christ, but I am sure that the Christmas season gives us all a strange sense of positivity.
People are suddenly generous and understanding. We suddenly become aware of the things and people around us. People tend to forgive more (during the holidays).
I may not believe that Christmas Day is Christ's actual birthday, but I believe in the warmth and hope that the season brings. We need warmth and hope. The world is becoming a scarier place by the minute, and warmth and hope is good.
Happy Holidays!
