Putting up and decorating a Christmas tree, Santa Claus bringing presents on Christmas Eve, getting together with family to have a big Christmas dinner and exchange presents, giving to the poor, attending Christmas pagents at church, placing a star on the top of a Christmas tree, giving to food collections for the poor, decorating yards with Christmas decorations, cities and towns decorating the streets and putting up large Christmas trees... Some that appear to have gone by the wayside: a transformation every December of people who actually appeared to be happy, contented, and giving, children singing Christmas songs (including Silent Night, Away in the Manger, etc) in school programs, saying "Merry Christmas" without worrying about offending anyone, "Christmas Break" that is now "Winter Break" in the public schools, Christmas carolling, companies giving turkeys to their employees, manger scenes on public property...

What is the origin of Christmas rituals?
According to The Encyclopedia Americana, "Most of the customs now associated with Christmas were not originally Christmas customs but rather were pre-Christian and non-Christian customs taken up by the Christian church. Saturnalia, a Roman feast celebrated in mid-December, provided the model for many of the merry-making customs of Christmas. From this celebration, for example, were derived the elaborate feasting, the giving of gifts, and the burning of candles."For more information visit the link under the related links section.
