Christmas is celebrated to observe the birth of Jesus Christ, whom Christians believe is the Son of God.
However, several reports have a different views on this. "Dec. 25 is not the date mentioned in the Bible as the day of Jesus’s birth; the Bible is actually silent on the day or the time of year when Mary was said to have given birth to him in Bethlehem. The earliest Christians did not celebrate his birth," a Washington Post report says.
