One of my close friends is a Muzzer, one of the nicest people ever. Doesn't practice it outside of fasting and avoiding pork though, an Indian but born here. He drinks and celebrates Christmas and when I asked him about this, he said he and his family don't see it as celebrating Christmas, they're just have a day together to eat and exchange gifts. Same as most people I guess.

When I was at college, apart from one guy everyone there (nearly all Muzzers) was a complete cunt. One guy was involved in dog fighting rings among other stuff.
