boxing day is called boxing day as churched opened up the day after christmas so those who recieved presents could go around the back of the church and donate their unwanted gifts into the boxes so the church could then distribute them to the poor and use the money to refurbish the church...\n\nyou put as much as you wanted in to these boxes as it was always anonymous-only "god" judged you for your generosity\n\nhope that helps\n\nx

Have often wondered that myself.The whole Xmas tree and decos,cards and White Christmas theme can be blamed on Queen Victoria and her husband Albert.He was German, and in Europe they have had a combination of the St.Nicolaus (Santa) gift giving and a larger celebration for a few centuries.Though the day of gift giving varies from Xmas day in some countries.In England it used to be on the 26th ,that's why its called Boxing Day.\n But as to why it continued on after the Victorian era ,I have no idea!\n   As you know Jesus was not born anywhere near Xmas.But many other Gods were.So Christianity "adopted" it. \n An obvious reason for its perpetuation is its commercial potential,its been pounded into us so much that we feel the good old post/Christian guilt if we don't buy presents and take part in family rituals and traditions on that day.\n I get a bit 'narked because it is my birthday on the 25th Dec. and it gets lost in among the Xmas trappings.\nSo I have an excuse to celebrate on that date even though I don't pretend to be Christian.

The answers above are both wrong. Returning the box is just a theory. I think this will answer your question...\nhttp://ask.yahoo.com/ask/20001226.html\n\nI would like to add that we celebrate Boxing Day in South Africa too.
