There you go, you answered your own question. You weren't telling us what Xmas meant to you, you were telling us what it meant to all of us, whether we like it or not!Quote:

In fact, the whole Xmas tree and giving presents pre-dates Christianity by thousands of years.Quote:

Now I can see how you would say that the feast celebrated at that time of the year is not known as Christmas in most of the World. However that's a different thread. Given that this one is about "What Does Christmas Mean To You".
Can I suggest you include "... by some people ..." somewhere in that post.Quote:
