>Believing this bullshit meme
Jesus was not even born in 25th December
"Christmas" has it's roots on Winter Festivals dating as far back as the Pre-Pagan days well into the days of Anicient Rome with the "Saturnalia" festival dedicated to the deity Saturn(which ultimately a lot of it's customs were eventually incorporated into "Christmas" and "New Year's Eve" when Ancient Rome fell under Christian rule) which is far earlier than Christianity ever existed
>>145715007
If American TV ads are correct, your Christmas revolves around Coca-Cola

Isn't Christmas just a pretext to get money from your family?
>all this heresy
>There are people here who think Christmas is about Jesus Christ
>There are people here who think Jesus was born in December 25th
Hahahahahahahaha
>>145715307
Probably. Wasn't Santa Claus coke's mascot? Seriously though everything is driven by the money so probably.
>>145715344
Isn't Christmas just the church's attempt to erase some Roman holiday from the history books?
>>145715500Some Jehova's witnesses, I think that's what they are called, told me that 25 december was a completely different festivity in the past and also that hell doesn't exist either, it's part of the greek culture or some shit like this, I don't remember.
>>145715572

The spread of Christianity throughout the world made it so that they basically took over a shitload of elements from all of these ancient festivals and made these into what you now know as "Christmas" but in reality the holiday has nothing to do with the birth of Christ himself and has more to do with the spirit of all of these ancient festivals even if most people aren't aware
Yes

Is there anything worse that Christfags who pretend Christmas is a serious religious holiday?
>Santa Claus lives at the North Pole and rides a sleigh pulled by reindeer
>People put decorations on an evergreen tree (which they did not have in Nazareth)
>Eggnog was not served at the last supper
It's a pagan holiday appropriated by Christfags to pretend their dickhead was important. No one cares about Christianity on Christmas.
>>145721404
I agree considering Jesus was born in the summer but I disagree on one thing, Jesus was not a dickhead.
>>145721645
Yeah I guess that was more of an affectionate term. Was trying to think of a -fag term to use, but wouldn't really.
>>145721645
>Jesus was not.
ftfy

>>145721404
>It's a pagan holiday
That would be an incorrect statement because nobody identified as a "pagan" before the 20th century
That shit was born out of the Christian community as a slur for Non-Christians
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paganism
The correct statement would be that it was an ancient religious festival
In fact it probably even predates the so called "Pagan" religions since it's literally supposed to be a festival celebrating Winter Solstice

Christmas and the winter solstice are two seperate holidays, and dind't have any historical association.
