christmas
1. December 25.
2. Day celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ, although most scholars today generally agree that Jesus was not born on December 25, was not born in the year 0, and was not the son of God.
3. A season extending from Halloween through the end of the calendar year in which society pressures us to spend a good deal of our time and income in order to buy gifts for others which in 4 out of 5 cases will be returned or never used.
4. A miserable time of year when we are reminded of how unsatisyfing our lives are.
