Is it OK for a Jew to celebrate Christmas?
Joe Gutfeld:
Since the holiday season is now upon us in the United States, I would like to know from you all if it's OK for a Jew to celebrate Christmas. I, as a Jew believe that it's disgusting that a Jew does so. Irving Berlin who wrote the song White Christmas, celebrated not only Christmas but Easter as well. Do you find it disturbing that a Jew celebrates both holidays every December?
Hrvatski Noahid:
Once an idol is not worshiped anymore, it is no longer classified as an idol that one must be concerned about. The Christian idol is alive and well.
Tag-MehirTzedek:
We are free not to. I actually learned today and was somewhat surprised by what the Rama says (as opposed to the Shulhan Aruch)
