I follow 'The Ottawa Jewish Archives' site because I went to school with so many Jewish friends. Posted today was a notice that the site will be closed from December 22 to January 2. Since Hanukkah is from December 7 to 22, I have asked the admin why they have closed the site over Christmas?

| Not Christmas |
We'll see what they answer. (Note: They answered and said it was closed because the archivist would be away.)
But it begs a larger question. Why have so many other religions and sects co-opted Christmas? And why have we allowed Christmas to be changed to "Seasons" or 'Holidays"??
Pisses me off. Last time I checked, December 25th was and remains Christmas Day. It's not "Holiday" Day or "Season's" Day. It's Christmas Day and I'm sick of its cancellation and denial.

| Christmas |
I worked with a few Muslim and Hindu colleagues and actually asked them if they would be at work on Christmas Day. Ha, what a joke! All other religions take their own holidays, but also stay home during the Christian and other Christmas holidays.
Complete bullsh-t.
