BTW. This gentleman was very curious to find a "Christian" who did not celebrate the day as the birth of the Savior. He thought it peculiar and was very open to hear and understand why. This is very different (generally speaking) from my experience with religious people who DO celebrate the day in a religious manner.

Sisterly,
No, I mean, has the observance of Dec. 25th as Jesus' birthday ever caused a non-believer to become a Christian ?
I understand taking the opportunity of using the observance to teach others the truth. In a way, that is what I am trying to do.
