I like the idea of having a winter holiday to celebrate family and being generous, but America's Christmas is basically just a celebration of capitalism. =/

I don't because I worked retail for a number of years. The decorations and music were bad enough, but it seemed like customers just got ruder and ruder the closer to Christmas it became. While I like the idea of the spirit of giving and being happy, it seems more people are worried about buying the right items and so few are nice around that time. Plus whenever you go to a store it's jam packed with people.

I kinda voted for all of them because as much as I don't like the religious ties, materialism and stress of christmas, I do like giving people gifts, eating, and of course recieving gifts

I don't mind that it's Christian, but I don't like that this holiday has been the norm and all other religious holidays become invisible. I HATE that Christmas has become so commercialized.

I'm an atheist but I still enjoy Christmas because it's a great day to spend with my family.

I like the idea of Christmas, but the reality tends to be another matter.

I have three children who have really opened my eyes to the beauty of Christmas. I do find it to be stressful, I do find it to be commercialized, but for my family, I love it.

Yes...the commercialism is just out of hand. I like Xmas in theory and it has it's moments, but it can be stressful getting caught up in the whirlwind of shopping/choosing gifts.

.....Its meaning being a way of masking Roman pagan celebrations?

I like Xmas but I hate Xmas shopping! It seems like everybody is their nastiest in the weeks coming up to the holiday. People trample each other, steal from each other, and scream at each other.

In fact, my house was just recently broken into since robberies are always at an all time high during the holidays.

Bah humbug!

I don't mind it's a Christian holiday, I just don't like it when people go over the top about it in a religious fashion, also Christmas time is always very stressful unless I do my shopping online.

I love Christmas! But I am not Christian and do not celebrate it for what many people do. It's about coming together, for me.

I love the Christmas songs they sing at church and getting everyone together, but I hate the stress and the "They got a better gift than I did" drama.

I don't like it because everyone, all my family we used to celebrate with is now dead. Needless to say, it's a very depressing time of year for me.

I like Christmas - mostly because I love watching people open the gifts I give to them. (I do Christmas shopping throughout the year, by picking up on what people say they like, so it's not stressful for me.)

I have no problem with Christmas per se but I have a problem with the stress placed on parents to buy crap their kids neither want nor need just to prop the economy in some mysterious way. Thew holiday is fine then overblown pressure cooker before the holiday is not.
