What does Christmas mean to you? It can mean various things depending on who you are & your beliefs. I don’t celebrate it for the religious aspect but for the time spent with family. It’s just another day so doesn’t hold a strong meaning for me.

Being a Christian it represents the birth of Christ. Christ’s birth is traditionally celebrated in the West on December 25th, but many Orthodox Christians celebrate Christmas on January 7. Neither date is likely correct in light of several clues uncovered by historians and information in the Bible itself. But hey just go with the flow so to speak.

Love Christmas! And, as a Christian, I respect the religious aspect of it and also cherish the time spent with my wonderful family! 'Don't Forget The Baby'!

Celebrating the birth of the Savior is definitely the meaning of Christmas. The exact date of His birth doesn't really matter though.

Being with family. Don't commercialize it. If it's for Jesus' birth, why do WE get gifts?
