Problem? One of them is Jewish.
Any ideas?

You should give this person a present. Religion never matters.

A present's a present, I'm sure they won't care

Christmas is only celebrated by Christians.

Jewish people are not Christian.

Jewish people do not celebrate Christmas.

Not to offend any Germans, but Jewish people have had some bad experiences with Christians.

It could be offending to give a Jewish person a present that celebrates a Christian holiday.

World War II was 66 years ago. *facepalm*. It's not like he/she is going to get offended if you givet him/her a present celebrating a holiday that is celebrated by people who killed 60 million of his/her kind just because put many of his/her ancestors in fear for their lives. If they are truly friends with you, he/she won't care, and he/she will actually be happy.

After correcting your grammar and facts, I would also like to add that just because 66 years went by DOES NOT mean that there has been forgiveness.

People who survived, and live to talk about it today are definitely not forgiving. Life isn’t actually the happy little world that most people like to believe that it is. It is full of hatred, and I can live with that.

[EDIT]: You also phrased it to seem as though Wickimen posted before me. He didn’t.

Nobody said anything about Hitler or WWII or anything like that, if someone gave me a present for something I didn't celebrate I wouldn't really know what to do, if I take and don't give it looks like I'm greedy, if I reject then that will create frustration, if I take and give then I might as well celebrate the holiday.

And JJ, nobody's categorizing anyone, they're just trying to be polite. They're not saying "I was thinking of giving a Jewish person a present, which ones have no small parts and won't hurt them when they chew on it?" they're asking if they should get a present for a Jewish person on Christmas, because if they don't they might feel left out, and if they do it might offend them.

I think Wickimen's a girl...?
Anyway, most Christians did nothing to Jews.  Don't stereotype.  And that grammar-policing was totally unneccessary.

Also, slinger said "almost 70" and apparently to henly 66 is nowhere near 70.
