[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Reform Jew here, who married a non-religious woman that grew up celebrating a secular Christmas.  We celebrate Chanukah and Christmas, and it's great - lights, presents, tons of food, lots of family, Santa Claus, Christmas movies, the whole thing - but no church.  I love it - it is so much fun.[/quote]

I'll tell you, my husband's Reform grandparents used to say that. They had a Christmas tree "for the children." It was a slippery slope. Only one of their grandchildren married in (my DH), and only one of their great-grandchildren is Jewish (my kid) is Jewish today. [/quote]

It's a  slippery slope only if you think practicing Judaism through the generations is important.[/quote]

Exactly! As we have said we Jews who celebrate Christmas WANT to be Christians - Jesus is the Moshiach. All the cool kids think so![/quote]
...Is this sarcasm? Or are you really here in the middle of Hanukkah proselytizing? lol[/quote]
