Why do Christians send each other Christmas cards instead of sending birthday cards to Jesus?

How does that make sense?

Why do Christians send each other Christmas cards instead of sending birthday cards to Jesus?
I no longer send Christmas cards, or any other cards, except via email. I consider all paper cards a blatant waste of money because most of them are generally tossed in the trash. It is more beneficial to send the money for the cards and accompanying stamps to charity.
Reply:I agree... And why do they give each other gifts? It's not their birthday, it's the Lord's??? This has always puzzled me...
Reply:Well, we spread the birth of Jesus to all our loved ones, and bless them. And we are waiting for the coming of Jesus. So, he is half man, half spirit, so we dont really know when he is coming. DUH!!
Reply:where would they send the cards to??? heaven 333 or hell 666
Reply:We, do that, in the form of prayer. %26lt;}:-})
Reply:birthday cards? r u serious?? who are you going to sent it to? heaven??
Reply:How about yourself? And where do you mail it to?
Reply:Because Christmas is not Christ's "birthday", it is our celebration of the Incarnation. We rejoice together in the unfolding of the process that climaxes at Holy Pascha.
Reply:Do you have Jesuss address or email? lol





I think it's just a way of keeping the spirit, and to say hi to those you don;t see often.


Another Q? Why do we give and get gifts on his birthday?
Reply:They don't have Jesus' address to smother him with cards.





And they still don't know when he was born, so it's moot. (Would he really like cards on Ra's birthday?)
Reply:Jesus was a gift to us, not to himself because he is selfless.
Reply:well the mail delivery in heaven is a little slow, but we do pray and it arrives instantly..
Reply:Well we reseve that holiday and worship him.


But when was the last time you checked ont he phone book and saw his address?





interesting we lift him up in praise instead of sending him a useless paper card.
Reply:Give me his address and i'll send him one....
Reply:Cuz, he moved and no one has the address and if everyone sends out a card maybe they will find him.
Reply:How exactly would you suggest sending a card to heaven???
Reply:How would one send a birthday card to Jesus?
Reply:I didnt realize Jesus had an address to send a card to.





If this is suppose to be a bash on christians celebrating christmas it is really really reaching and pretty lame.








Maybe if you didnt ask question purposelly trying to bash on other people it would be a little more funny. There is nothing humorous about this question. If you were attempting to be then you failed miserably.
Reply:lol that's a funny question
Reply:They pray.


Jesus doesn't have an address anyway?
Reply:???????????????????


and i am a Christian


ask you self
Reply:Since when was it just christians?
Reply:Jesus isn't accepting mail right now, in fact the last time I called his secretary said his people would call my people and we'd do lunch. That was 15 years ago. Also Ahura Mazda, Buddha, and not one of the stinking 96,000 gods of Hinduism has answered so much as a freaking email. You believe that? oh yeah, happy early winter solstice
Reply:How would you send a birthday card to Jesus?
Reply:Obviously, you don't believe in Christmas since you asked a silly questions like this. That's like saying, "I'm sending a St. Patty's Day card to a leprechaun instead of to my loved one".





Not that you really NEED an explaination but I'll give you one anyway - The reason we send Christmas cards to each other is because we want to wish our friends/family a Happy Christmas.
Reply:So... what's the address to send Jesus some bday cards?
Reply:I don't know His address.
Reply:Christmas is about giving....so give cards to show people that we care, although its something you can do all through the year. A card is just a token of love, and warmth. We dont send them to Jesus because HE wants our praise and worship not card. We praise Him with the fruit of our lips not with someone elses words on a card.
Reply:when i was little i remember going to sunday school and on christmas we sang happy birthday to jesus and ate b-day cake.
Reply:how would the send birthday cards to jesus.
Reply:lol that is sooo funny. i answered anothe question you answered and laughed at you and pitied you for being so ignorent and now you are helping me prove it.
