Some people around the world celebrate Christmas and that is in the month and day of December 25. If you ask some children if when Jesus was born, they answered it December 25. Yeah! it's the practices that they taught but i don't know exactly when or how its started... Some books describe that its in the middle of hot and cold season so maybe its not December... Hopefully we can share our own beliefs about Christmas in this Discussion...

Jesus was not born in 25 December. There is no records stating when he was born. So, it is important for us to tell our children that. I am a Christian but I do not celebrate Christmas. However, we can make this a day for family gathering since it is a public holiday and we can talk about the miracles by Jesus.
The meaning of Christmas has been distorted further with Santa Clause.

True Jesus may not have been born in December. But the fact of the matter is that we have to celebrate Christmas since Jesus was born and paved the way for Him to save mankind from their sins and going to hell. If not for Jesus, there was no way to go to heaven since he said that He is the way the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Him.
Now whether this day is truly the exact month of his birthday should actually be a none issue. the most important thing is that we celebrate Jesus' birthday and that is the most important thing.
