Thank you Walrus.
I am agnostic though Jewish by birth but live in a broadly secular Country with Christian traditions, and so my Mrs and the kids have never been to synagogue and I have always celebrated Christmas with them and the in-laws. If I am with my Dad or siblings then I will join in with Passover, Hannukah etc and we have a menorah and candlesticks in the cupboard which comes out when he visits. Out of respect for him I will also observe Sabbath and take part in the chanting and blessings when he is around. Sabbath for most Jews is a time for family and games etc which is nice but I often have to work Friday nights and Saturdays. I like the Hebrew Sabbath prayers they remind me of my Grandfather who has long passed. Never spun a dreidel though many still buy them as gifts at this time of year.

Merry Xmas
Confidence is silent. Insecurities are loud.
No love for me on here Dia? Ok, I'll remember that
Feliz Navidad. Have some "coquito" to go along with that order of "lechón asado" and "arroz con gandules".
I'm very happy on the celebration of the birth of the savior Jesus Christ
Merry Christmas to you @Paul Kevin O wise one.
Had the line drawn yesterday. Apparently "that's just fuckin weird" but to me Christmas isn't religion, it's basically what you took and make as family. Looking forward to getting back home for this one. Merry Christmas Saddos
