The only time I really enjoyed caroling in recent years was when my college-aged son got us to do it for Halloween!

My family always had fun on Christmas. We were never religious. It was a joyous time of merriment. I still go Christmas caroling. It is fun. I am happy to say Merry Christmas. If people think of the time of year as Christmas, I have no problem using the word.

Sing your heart out!

I don't mind the religious aspect of Xmas...no different than Santa or the tooth fairy our Easter boy.

No need to reject the customs

I like singing carols. I'm not superstitious. They can be vocally fun.
Singing about the baby in the manger is no different to me than singing about Santa on the roof top with flying reindeer.
What I find annoying is the insistence that people are taking Christ out of Christmas. Even if Christmas was the original idea and not Winter Solstice, I find most non believers do not have a take Christ out of Christmas agenda. It the whole annoying martyr syndrome.

For me the past few years and longer my favorite part has been the music. Singing it, playing it or listening to it was always enjoyable for me. Grandma got run over by a reindeer is one that I enjoy.

Never join in with carol singing, in fact I find the constant playing of Xmas carols for the last 2 months of every year by radio and TV quite annoying.
