    I’m not an Athiest, but I am not a Christian either. If I had to classify myself, I would say I am a pagan. I celebrate Christmas, and it is one of my favorite times of year. Christmas isn’t exclusively a Christian holiday. It wasn’t even originally a Christian holiday. Celebrating the Winter Solstice – to be more exact – is an ancient tradition. Many of our Christmas tradition, such as a Christmas tree, wreaths, mistletoe, Yule log, and so on are much older than Christianity. To me, Christmas is a time to celebrate winter, come together with our families, take stock of our lives, and give gifts to those we care most about. To me, that is the meaning of Christmas.
