I've just been rereading HP and the Order of the Phoenix. There's a
chapter where the Weasleys and Sirius are celebrating Christmas. Two
things struck me.
1. Would witches and wizards celebrate Christmas? Wouldn't they have
their own (more ancient?) holidays?
2. Mr Weasley, in particular, delights in Muggles' devices because he
seems so cut off from the muggles' world. Would he even know about
Christmas? Or he'd know about it in much the same way as the average
Christian knows about Passover.
Any comments?
Thanks
Barry
