People all over the world celebrate the birth of Christ on December 25th. But why is the Nativity marked by gift giving, and was He really born on that day? And just where did the Christmas tree come from? Take an enchanting tour through the history of this beloved holiday and trace the origins of its enduring traditions. Journey back to the earliest celebrations when the infant religion embraced pagan solstice festivals like the Roman Saturnalia and turned them into a commemoration of Jesus' birth. Learn how Prince Albert introduced the Christmas tree to the English-speaking world in 1841, and discover how British settlers in the New World transformed the patron saint of children into jolly old St. Nick.
This documentary explores the origin of Christmas and how it came to be the way we know it today. The documentary also incites the thought as to how Christmas is on one hand a result of social, cultural, and political influences (hence somewhat obscuring the apparent purpose of the festival: Christ's Mass), and on the other hand a influence over people's lives (particularly consumerism).

I refues to celebrate Christmas and instead replace it with an updated version of the pagan holiday "Yuletide" where we dont celelbrate fictional charectors that a cult leader created so they could scare people into giving them thier money.
But hey some people are stupid and will belive any bullsh*t story they are told when they are scared or tricked into believing lies. THERE LIES!!!!!! YOU LIEING CHRISTIAN BASTURDS!!!! Shame on all of you!! You make me sick!!
The term "real" christians as you define it is suspect. The EVENT to those who are Christians if it were truly meaningful would require truth, because the person who we call LORD walked in truth and is truth. (Jn 14:6) Therefore, to say the date doesn't matter is to say the one sign given to a wicked and adulterous generation doesn't matter. Yet to those who can't count to 3 it doesn't, but truth does. Walk in love & truth that is true worship. Thanking God for Yahshua Amen that I agree.
Romans 1:20-25 makes it clear that the invisible things of Him from creation of the world are clearly seen. Which is why you will be without excuse when you stand before Him because you willingly chose to reject the truth. Just as u were birthed by parents not energy, why would u believe that the Creator of us and the universe is like unto the thing which He made? To simplify our existence to just being energy is a foolish notion. Bible has proven its accuracy Quran has not big difference.
The reason Islam is growing is because they apply the principles of scripture unlike many of us who claim to love Yahshua. The principles if followed will bring blessings, just as if they are not followed will bring curses. God's people (Christians) have suffered mainly because we have thrown away the laws of God which have nothing to do with salvation, but everything to do with blessing. Believing that we aren't under the law not realizing Yahshua is the word (law) made flesh.
Yahshua (Jesus) is the way the truth and the life no man can come to the Father but by Him.(Jn 14:6) I agree with you concerning Christmas it has nothing to do with worshipping Jesus. Scripture itself teaches that it is pagan in origin and encyclopedias notes that as a part of its history.(Jer. 10:1-5) However, Muhammad is not the sinless lamb that takes away the sin of the world. If he didn't have Yahshua he also doesn't have the Father.
The main reason why Islam is growing fast is because of births. Christianity is the fastest growing religion in terms of converts,and thats a FACT.Dude,don't talk about the Bible if you don't know what you're talking about.
God sent Christ pbuh for the Children of Israel (as he quoted himself in bible) but they rejected him and wanted to kill him.. Jesus was rejected by the jews as mentioned in bible. And so The same God sent Muhammed pbuh the final prophet who's message from God was not rejected and islam now is the fastest growing religion in the world.. there is no record of jesus celebrating his birthday and definately not in the way christmass is celebrated today.. there was a time USA church banned Christmass
