The reason for the celebration of Christmas, which is often overshadowed by the gifts, is far better than Thanksgiving.
Thanksgiving better than Christmas?

We have Ham and Turkey on Thanksgiving.
But on Christmas, it's more of a pot luck. The food is clearly better. Thanksgiving, just two or 3 people make all of the food in my family. On Christmas, everyone makes their favorite dishes. Nothing is ever pre-packaged, and all of it, including the deserts(serious deserts, not the super-simple filling-type mixed with crumbs in a pyrex pan, although that is good too), the drinks(even homebrewed beer, soda, and wine/spirits) are there. I make the croquettes, gumbo, potato pancakes, and english style toffee, which all take me 3 days to complete, and I know most of my family members spend more time on some of their dishes and deserts.
Without the food, half of the family wouldn't even come LOL! So yeah, I can see that as a big reason for Xmas being far and away better than Thanksgiving.

I like Christmas. It's great watching your kids (I have three under 7 years old) open presents and really have a great time.

Anyone who picked Thanksgiving is a looney left secular progressive waging a war on Christmas.

my family and I never really cared that much for Thanksgiving. I prefer Christmas over thanksgiving any day of the week. The Christmas/New Years holiday to me is more fun and more food. I eat turkey all the time anyway. I don't just eat it at thanksgiving. so it's not that special to me.

I worked Christmas day at a 24-hour Osco one year. The place was packed. I couldn't believe how many people were out shopping that day.
