actually, Saturnalia, now called christmas, was an Ancient Roman festival held in honour of Saturn, to raise citizen morale after a crushing military defeat at the hands of the Carthaginians. then altered by the first christian roman emperor, Constantine the Great.
Why does that prove Christians wrong? So we took a joyful celebration that became America's favorite holiday and a model for hundreds and thousands of plays, movies, and books, so what?
@Waffle281 They suspiciously chose the same day for their celebration without their celebration having any association with that particular day (apart from the similarities with the Mithras religion who was said to have been born on the winter solstice; Jesus was more likely to have been born in the spring). They purposely chose it so that the pagans could first get used to this new celebration and then slowly be converted to it over time and nowaways it has been completely taken over.
@viridismonasteriense Well, that's what happens, religions fall in and out of fashion! No one worships Annubis or Zeus anymore, but people did for centuries!
@Waffle281 There's no such thing. The Egyptians were conquered by Alexander, then the Romans, who also conquered Greece and took over their divine Pantheon by renaming the Gods, like Zeus is Jupiter, Hades is Pluto etc. Religions don't just go away. The victor establishes their faith on to the public by law. Achnaton tried to have Egypt worship one Sun God Aton, but was killed by Amon-worshippers, who then tried to erase him out of history. Religion dies hard. Christianity knows it by heart.
@silverstatus It was meant to be sort of a dramatic "WHY!?!?!?!?!?" moment, kind of like those Spanish soap opera POR QUE!?!?! moments, as you were trying to start some flames to get a wildfire going, if you know what I mean.
oh i know nobody cars and yes i did read the da vinci code, but either way i still haul a big ass tree into my living room, cover it with firehazards and put on cheesy music because although the date isnt accurate, i still freaking love christmas
just pointing out that Pickle312's statement that "cause thats sort of what Christmas is all about.... Jesus was born" is slightly off :P
Astronomers found that the single "beacon of light" was actually Jupiter and Venus coming close enough together that they shone as one unusually bright light sometime around, if not on, June 17th.
See that's cause over the years he's turned into the guy that you hate to bring cause he's such a let down, but you hate to not invite cause he's an even bigger let down later.

Christmas was orrigionally a Pagan celebration which the christians stole.
If this comment gets a thumbs down, it'll be because of biased christians who don't like their religion being proved wrong.

This is exactly my point.
People think they're celebrating Christmas because Jesus was born on Christmas day.
I am trying to say, as is Robbaz, that people should not think this, because it is incorrect.
