Which month do you celebrate Christmas and Hanukkah?

This question does not have one right answer.Christmas is celebrated by Christians, who traditionally use the widely accepted solar calendar. This is the one that is sold in most stores. (12 months, January, February, etc)Hanukkah is celebrated by Jews, and the Jewish religion determines its holidays according to a lunar calendar. The lunar and solar calendars are different, and this is why the dates of Jewish holidays change every time the solar calendar restarts.In most cases, both holidays happen to fall in the month of December. However, since Hanukkah's date is constant according to the lunar calendar, occasionally, Hanukkah falls on November, such as in 2013.
