Why would someone celebrate...?

This question is very difficult. I believe same sex couples should have some status that provides for all the benefits afforded to married hetero couples. \nTo me it is the word marriage that stops everyone.No need to rehash all the reasons,  ie procreation and so forth. \nFor the couples it is a marriage in their eyes, and so should it be, requiring a legal dissolution should the union break up.\n\nThe whole thing would be what name to give the ceremony that legally joins these two. Heteros do not want to call it a marriage, gays do. Is it really so important that word is used if there were a legal commitment ceremony with all the trimmings and benefits?

I dont think so. It's a time of celebration, regardless of how many children she has.

Sure. Christmas is a nice holiday.  I'm sure most of us have mixed emotions on this holiday for many different reasons.  I think the predominant emotion would be happiness, though.  Its a nice thing to see someone in love with the gift you gave them.  Sharing is a really nice thing-even if it isn't an exchange of gifts, its nice to share time with people on this holiday.

Maybe because it's a Pagan holiday? Don't say it's stupid before asking him the details of why. I personally don't like how commercialized the holiday has become. It's not about spending money, it's about spending time with your loved ones. It's Jesus' birthday, not ours, so exchanging material is so very trife.

It says that you are a normal person and you like happy occasions even if they belong to another religion. Get it the mood and have fun and don't think about it. I mean Christian holidays origin from way back before Christ and church turned their meanings cause people could not stop celebrating.\nAnother thing is that even Japanese people celebrate Christmas so don't worry.

the celebration per se wouldn't matter as long as you make him happy.

I don't celebrate either one. I choose as Paul said not to " esteem one day above the next." I treat each day as a day to love and praise my Father for sending Jesus to show me the Way! The days you mention are man's teachings not the teachings of The Spirit of God.

I find it hard to believe anyone would celebrate any death, much less a 9/11 party?. Are you kidding me?.all life has positive aspects to it.\n This is not to say some people do not deserve to be put out of there misery, as well as ours.\n until you are put in the position of the Innocent Sol, party on.\n after you become the Innocent Sol, (go to hell) if you celebrated any death.

Now that you're an adult, it's okay for you to know that many many people do not care to celebrate the birth of Jesus.  \n\nThink of youself as a minority and imagine everyone wishing you the gift of 72 virgins from Allah.  Would you get sick and tired of it after two months of being inundated with "the season?"  Every time you pay for a purchase, the clerk wishes you 72 virgins from Allah.  How long can you continue to be courteous?\n.

Hi there,\nI am sure that God is displeased at our state of social disregard for one-another, especially when he has benevolently blessed this country with a bounty of plenty.\n\nI would like to suggest an observation that all of us may participate in...\nThe observation is this, look around you this holiday and make a mental note of things that are wasted and ask your selves....\nWho could I benefit by sharing my blessings....\n\nThe meaning of "Thanks Giving" is to have gratitude and to share.\nI myself really have few resources however, I plan to try and make some-ones day by offering of my caring...\n\nI look for no reward other than a smile...\nMay all of " Yahoo Answers " participants have a wonderful time and holiday...
