valentinoo SG Why do Non Christians celebrate Xmas...especially chinese non christians..May i know why? Discuss
Gordonator SG celebrate as in what? saying "merry christmas" when u see eachother, buy presents for one another, dine together. this is very common what, nothing wrong with doing all this what? why do u want to differentiate it between christians and non-christians?
valentinoo SG isnt it for christians?? do u see christians celebrating hari raya diwali or chinese new year?
valentinoo SG ok chinse new year is a bad example coz its just a new year...but xmas has somethin to do wid christianity..so i was curious why non christians's chinese also celebrate it? is it coz its like an IN thing ?
yuko-ogura SG it gives pple the reason to have fun.. frens to hang out tgt... gf/bf to date.... family to party wif... most impt of all.. iT'S fOr SLaCkErS tO HaVe a sLeeP & wOrKeRs tO HaVe a bReaK. as a matter of fact..some chinese do celebrate hari raya...as to why christmas is celebrated by the masses of all races..it started long time ago..why bother to rake up the past? as long as we have fun..nth matters right?
LinYu SG In those days celebrating Christmas is performing acts such as Masses, carolling and religious acts of giving In today contact celebrating Christmas means sales, shopping, drinking, boozing, partying disco dancing etc etc etc. The true meaning is lost and commericalise.
valentinoo SG i think christians still do masses carolling, religious acts...but non christians has spoils it by shoppin partying...basically commercialise it
dumbdumb! SG haha.. actually, christmas is for everyone to enjoy and celebrate. After all, if u understand the true meaning of christmas. Christ was born, He died for everyone.
curio t SG many singaporeans are sadly just blind followers. pple do what, they follow. they nv pause and think. what does xmas mean to me? all flock to orchard road, thinking it is wintery? i buy present, u buy present, all buy present. very stupid folks. just like what Li Ao said.
so_what SG How do to specify CELEBRATE? Normally, ppl jus to hav gatherings wif frds, exchanging gifts is fun. But non-christians didn't go to churches for xmas carols wat. There's still a difference. In another way, it shows non-christians can accept christanity stuffs but not vice-versa
keeptheshoe SG i tink christmas holidae is great fun bcos of the celebration downtown n the crazy sales tats happenin,,,
