About the Book

Whether or not you're reading this book before, during, or after a Christmas Season, I wish you a merry Christmas - in advance or balance - as the case may be. I'll be quick to add that you read it with an open mind, for only then will you understand why we celebrate Christmas and why you should also partake in this globally celebrated but lowly calibrated celebration.

While this book is specifically to enlighten those who oppose the celebration of this all-important season; those who have no qualms about celebrating it but don't celebrate it, as well as those who celebrate it will equally find it a veritable resource of knowledge.

Therefore, this book is for everyone: First of all, and most importantly, those who oppose the celebration of Christmas!
Second. It's for those who have no problems with the celebration but don't celebrate it. This class of people are those I call, the "Neutrals". They're not against the celebration and don't celebrate it.

And thirdly, those who celebrate it. In this category, however, I find two sub-categories: those who celebrate Christmas with understanding and those who celebrate it without understanding its significance. Thus, this book is for everyone who desires to learn more and to know more about Christmas.

To achieve my aim of effectively reaching everyone in the three groups and sub-groups without erecting religious walls or creating cultural cum traditional biases, I consciously avoided positions and explanations that have strong religious connotations. Rather, I focused on logical perspectives and reasoning to adduce my points.

I'm deliberate in doing this so as not to sound religious at all. I took the path of appealing to sound reasoning and logical thinking, which everyone, including irreligious folks, can appreciate and identify with.

For instance, I wrote in Chapter 1 that, far beyond the decorations of twinkling lights, cards, gifts, and carols; Christmas has a spiritual dimension only very few folks are privy to.

I contended in Chapter 2 that the focus shouldn't be on the season alone but also on the reason - the Reason for the Season: Jesus. He's the Reason for the Season. To ignore or underrate Him and what He represents in our celebrations is to lose the spiritual favor and savor Christmas should afford.

In Chapter 3, I challenged the opposition to the celebration of Christmas based on the correctness of the 25th December globally celebrated date. My contention on the correctness of the date is that ATTITUDE shouldn't be sacrificed on the slaughter slap of EXACTITUDE. Our attitude to, and during the Christmas celebration is more important than the exactitude of the date of the celebration.

In challenging the opposition against Christmas based on its pagan origin in chapter 4, I posited that ORIGIN doesn't determine ORIGINALITY. The iniquitous patterns of incest, murder, and adultery in the family line of Jesus should have disqualified Him from being the Messiah - if origin were the determining factor in one's life. Even His low profile birth in the manger should have equally tainted His originality but that wasn't the case.

My position in Chapter 5 is that Christmas being the birthday of Jesus Christ is worth celebrating. Since Jesus - as a person - is worth celebrating; Christmas - His birthday - is equally worth celebrating. I esteem it to be an act of wisdom to celebrate a person of a lofty pedigree and high spiritual profile like Jesus.

In Chapter 6, I gave a prescription as to how best to celebrate Christmas. To me, the celebration of Christmas is a must! But it must be a worthy and godly Christmas celebration focused on virtues such as consecration more than on the celebration; on spirituality instead of just the festivity.

The book will make a good read if you read it to learn more about Christmas and not just to criticize it.

Enjoy a happy reading experience.
