I believe you're looking for the word blasphemous, but you are wrong. Your wooden application of Scripture is Pharisaical. Engaging in idolatry is wrong, but idolatry is largely a heart issue. Remember how Paul told believers to handle the issue of eating meat offered to idols. When a idol worshiper did it, it was sin. However, believers were free to engage in the same act with a pure heart and were none the worse for it. 1 Cor 8:4-8

To say that The messiah was born on December 25th is a lie . To "Christianize" December 25th as the birthday of The Messiah is utter nonsense. How can anybody thinks by taking a set date to honor a Pagan deity and "Christianize" that same date it makes it alright in Father YHVH or The Hebrev Messiah Yahushua eyes . That one of the most blaspheme thing to do according to the bible .

Jeremiah 10

3 For the customs of the people are vain: for one cutteth a tree out of the forest, the work of the hands of the workman, with the axe.

4 They deck it with silver and with gold; they fasten it with nails and with hammers, that it move not.

5 They are upright as the palm tree, but speak not: they must needs be borne, because they cannot go. Be not afraid of them; for they cannot do evil, neither also is it in them to do good.

@derekdb2 Who do you know that worships trees??

Contextually that is about idols (vs 8)...actually 'shaping' the wood w/ tools to be a 'god'. vs 3 (NASB, NIV, AMP)

Who do you know that proclaims to be Christian actually bows down to their tree and declares it to be a god?

On the contrary it is usually topped w/ an angle (liken to remind of those whom proclaimed the news to the shepherds) or a star (to which brought men from afar to find the true Light of the world).

Encyclopaedia Britannica, Volume 11 ; page 390.

"During the later periods of Roman history, sun worship gained in importance and ultimately led to what has been called a 'solar monotheism.' Nearly all the gods of the period were possessed of Solar qualities. The feast of Sol and Victus (open unconquered Sun) on December 25th was celebrated with great joy, and eventually this date was taken over by the Christians as Christmas, the birthday of Christ."

Christmas was not among the earliest festivals of the church ... the first evidence of the feast is from Egypt." (Catholic Encyclopaedia 1911 edition)

There is no authoritative tradition as to the day or month of Christ's birth ... The winter solstice was regarded as the birthday of the sun and at Rome a pagan festival of the nativity of 'sol invictus' was introduced by the Emperor Aurelian on 25th December (Chambers Encyclopaedia 1970)

The following Sun-deities were all born on 25 December, according to their legends: Crishna (Vishnu), Mithra (Mithras), Osiris, Horus, Hercules, Dionysus (Bacchus), Tammuz, Indra, Buddha. Therein we also read of the Scandinavian goddess Frigga in whose honor a "Mother-night" festival was held at the winter solstice 25 December, as well as a similar great feast of Yule, where a boar was offered at the winter solstice in honor of Frey .

Christmas is not about Christ or honoring his birthday . The day on which many misguided people think they are commemorate the birth of Christ, are really partaken in pagan rituals, that center on tree worship,false god worshiping, magic, and social exchange of gifts .The Star of Bethlehem is a, Pentagram symbol . Evergreen trees, mistletoe, wreaths, yule log , Santa Claus, stockings, comes from pagan traditions .

Repent of this pagan madness ans serve, Father YHVH

Christianity is about redemption, the redemption of all creation, including pagan holidays. Christ can transform our broken souls...and He can transform a day set aside for idolatry into one bringing glory to Him. All the days of the year belong to Him, including December 25th.
