One has to use a certain amount of deduction on these sorts of matters, because the Bible nowhere specifically addresses whether or not we should celebrate Christmas. It neither specifically ordains it nor condemns it. You infer from what is said one way, I infer another.

The bible says nothing about xmas? ya sure??

Jeremiah 10 10:1 Hear ye the word which the LORD speaketh unto you, O house of Israel:
10:2 Thus saith the LORD, Learn not the way of the heathen, and be not dismayed at the signs of heaven; for the heathen are dismayed at them.
10:3 For the customs of the people are vain: for one cutteth a tree out of the forest, the work of the hands of the workman, with the axe.
10:4 They deck it with silver and with gold; they fasten it with nails and with hammers, that it move not.
10:5 They are upright as the palm tree, but speak not: they must needs be borne, because they cannot go.
