Ask any Jew what we do on Christmas Day. I mean, we don’t have family gatherings. We don’t run downstairs to look under the Christmas tree. We don’t go around singing carols, and you can’t count on a White Christmas for sledding or building snowmen. Of course, if you’re a Jewish doctor (and aren’t those rare as hen’s teeth?) you might well be on call.
But for the average Jew, what can we count on for the day where the country which mandates a separation between church and state shuts down offices (including all government ones) in order to celebrate the (most likely mythical) birthday of a noted religious figure?
Movies and Chinese food.
