Since no one knows with 100% certainty which day Christ was born, what is the harm in celebrating it on Dec 25th?  Zero.  It is a well established Christian custom, one which the JEWS hate, in their WAR on Christmas, and all things related to Jesus Christ. The whole Honukah thing?  Lighting the menorah candle stick is an old tradition, but not giving gifts around this celebration, THAT came because the Jews were envious of OUR Christmas traditions of giving gifts to each other in celebration of Christ's birth.  God's plan all along was to keep pricking the Jews with ENVY toward Christians, in the hopes that they MIGHT look into Christianity and realize Jesus Christ is their Messiah and WAKE UP.  Unfortunately all that has happened to date is Jewish WARS ON CHRISTMAS.  The ONLY thing they like about Christmas is the sound of the cash register ringing up the highest sales volumes of the year.  So even Jewish retailers have been forced to acknowledge CHRISTmas each year to encourage high sales.  Ouch!  That must smart!  One day, we hope they will catch on to the truth. Absolutely nothing wrong with Christmas.  It was where I was first introduced to Christ, as a child, being taught "baby Jesus in the manager" and all the religious songs written about that fateful divine night. Since no one knows precisely when Christ was born, no harm in picking out one day of the year that we agree upon to celebrate his birth.  Anyone who says otherwise is a very sad and troubled GRINCH!
