In being nothing about Christ, Christmas can be everything about Christ

  We Christians sometimes want Christmas to be about Christ. Well, we always do. But, what if we allow it to be just a holiday, with nothing to do with Christ, for those who want it that way?
  This is Christianity: Tolerance, patience, love for others -- and caring for those who are different from us as well as those who are the same as us. Love thy neighbor? Not all of them are Christian. Being inclusive? Let others celebrate Christmas the way they will.
   For us, Christmas can be about Christ. But, I believe we should welcome others to this day, as well. If we mention not a word about Christ with them, as we celebrate, so be it. In being nothing about Christ, Christmas can be everything about Christ, for showing love for all is what Christmas is all about.
