    I know you're not very religious, Sam, but saying the Christmas is not really a thing in Russia is such a delusional thing to say!
    There is not a faithful Christian person on this planet - in Russia or elsewhere - who will tell you, that the New Year's Eve celebration is more important to them or nearly as important ,as the Birth of Christ into this World.
    Of course, for people who live outside the Church, so to speak - it's easy to confuse, because you see the looks and shine of the secular celebrations and you don't see much of the Church, so it's easy to get it wrong.

Но есть статистика. Рождественские богослужения ежегодно посещает примерно 2,3-2,5 млн человек. Это мене 2% населения России.

      You will be surprised, but Russia is not really such a religious country as it is presented everywhere. Most people do not believe in God, some believe "because it is fashionable" (judging by the cars parked near the church) and only a small part are true believers. But this is EVERYWHERE. Under the USSR, they officially did not believe in God, but then there were NO conflicts on religious grounds in the country, and the "ministers of the cult" did not meddle in other people's business and did not stir up trouble for the people. 😁
