'''Christmas ''' (or '''Christmas Day''') is an annual [[Christian ]] holiday that celebrates the [[birth of Jesus]]. It is traditionally celebrated on December 25th by most Christian; in the [[Eastern Orthodox Church]] it celebrated on January 7. It is a time when peace and goodwill are especially called for, and a time when Christians remember that [[God]] came down as a frail human, to save us from our [[sin]]. Christmas has many aspects, both religious and secular, including the exchange of gifts, Santa Claus (or Father Christmas), decoration and display of the Christmas tree, and church services remembering [[Jesus]].
