Why other religion didn't celebrate christmas?

The world has many religions. Each religion believes in different things. Some view Christmas, birthdays, and other holidays has having nothing to do with God, Jesus, or the Bible. They have looked at their roots and they are not what they want to do. Many religions will not eat blood, like Jews, Muslims, Jehovah's Witnesses and others. It is against their religions to eat blood.

because christmas isn't a prerequisite and is actually a big waste of time and money all that fuss over the holidays shessh

Are you from Cebu? You said dugo-dugo and I think only people in Cebu use that term for the dinuguan. Some religion think that its unclean to eat the blood of the pig. Some also dont celebrate Christmas cause they dont believe that Jesus is God. Some dont even celebrate their birthdays.

Are you talking about Iglesia ni Cristo. Yes, some other religions are not celebrating Christmas it is because they don't believe with Jesus Christ. Other like Muslim either, they do believe Mohammed. The reason that they don't eat Dinuguan it is because of their health as well. My friend told me that because blood is not really part of our food and it looks like cannibalism.

different countries have different culture. so don't worry about the different culture. in our country and have about 56 nationalities. and have so many difference amoung these nationalities. but we still have something the same . and get gether so well. so just understand it and receive it . everything is ok .

Actually, there are people who have very strong religious beliefs, but dont participate in any type of holiday or celebration. Celebrating holidays and practicing religion is all a choice each individual makes.

Protestants are Christians and there are a few sects who choose not to celebrate Christmas. That is their choice ... Protestants, by definition, are, after all Christians who protest against the teachings of the Catholic Church (in one way or another ... usually against the use of Latin in services and scripture). I don't know about your customs of eating 'the blood of the pig'. We, in the UK have black pudding which is rather more of an 'everyday' item (often eaten for breakfast). It's a sausage made from pig's blood, fat and breadcrumbs (and other things). For Christmas, however, we would eat a special meal of roast turkey, beef or (traditionally) goose with roast potatoes, parsnips, brussels sprouts and stuffing (which is made of breadcrumbs, onions and sage and used to be cooked stuffed into the cavity of the bird but is more often served separately these days). The celebration of Christmas, however, is much more than just a meal. It's the time for decorating the house with greenery, the central point of which is the tree (shamefully, often a plastic imitation these days!) and a time for giving and receiving presents. For many Christians it's a time to remember the birth of Jesus (even though He was more likely born in the month of March) and that is what 'Christmas' was originally about. I am sorry if your impression of Christianity is that we don't like to celebrate things! Most Christians (like any other people) like to celebrate many things and I would say that those you know are NOT typical of what Christianity is about!

As its already been said, Protestants ARE Christians..that being said, SOME Christian denominations DO NOT celebrate Christmas because its of Pagan origin (Yule)

Hi careguarden, Are you talking about different religions or just different denominations within Christianity. Protestants are Christians, they just aren't catholics. Most Christians celebrate Christmas but other religions do not. Blessings.

7th Day Adventists don't eat pork and don't celebrate holidays. It's most likely that is what your neighbors are.

There are a lot of different religions out there, who don't celebrate Christmas and don't eat different types of food.

For me yes not to celebrate about you are mention we follow what in the bible say just read in Leviticus 17:14 no blood to eat and it is a pagan form of worship to celebrate the birthday,christmas day.

Celebrating some occasion is at our own choices and preferences. I have also seen some people not celebrating festivals. It all depends on one's own thinking and beliefs. But I myself love festivals and also Christmas. Festivals and parties gives us some time to spend with our relatives and friends.

yes, they don't celebrate Christmas because they are celebrating other festivities too.. Like Muslims after Ramadan they have Hari Raya which is considered big event to them as they had a 1 month fasting. Indians have Deepavali and Chinese have Chinese New Year. Different countries, different religions, different cultures etc... lets just respect each others' differences.
