Finally a factual description of what the holiday season is about. The Christian religion does not realize that they where the one's who took the symbolism from many and made it there own ! Ignorance is dangerous, it isn't the followers fault as they are taught not to question or research or you are against God and will go to hell or the devil is in you, so sad how many have been manipulated right out of a wonderful birth right!

@1977dwk It is in no way preachy...it states FACTS and it is a shame that because of your ego you cannot see the truth. The truth shall set you free. And if you truly knew Christ, and could step our of your ego, you would find him deep within this video...I wish for you wisdom

Great summary of the many different cultural influences upon our modern Winter celebrations.

@Helenhealer Well said - in fact many Christian groups in history have not celebrated Christmas because they were aware of the pagan, non-Hebrew origins of the festivities...for me personally I honour my ancestors and celebrate Yule not the foreign Christian festivals but each to their own...peace to all.

@1977dwk yet what you are saying here has nothing to do with what is written in this video.this video is neutral

[Helenhealer]

@1977dwk He/She was not the god of gods;he was an Aeon that was created by the other gods.He was the god that incarnated into matter as a sacrifice to stop the world being destroyed & he,as when he incarnated he is a he,has done it many times for the same reasons.Go back to Sumer,ancient Iraq.Jesus was a representation of the LOGOS,the male direction,the WAY,yet he was not here alone,he was here with WISDOM yet the Roman Catholic church tried to promote LOGOS without his WISDOM

@1977dwk If I was preaching I would b telling people what they should believe or what I think they should believe.I am doing neither.I am sharing my finds during my own research regarding the winter solstice etc and it is up to people what they choose to believe.my main advice to anyone is, "Don't believe everything I say...research it for yourself." I put information out there.it's up to the individual to take from it what they wish.only you,for some insane reason,feels i am preaching

@1977dwk

My religion says there are no divinely revealed facts straight from the mouth of God that represent the "one true faith."

My religion does not ask people to believe blindly and without scientific evidence in supernatural "saviors," "prophets" or "avatars" of a particular ethnicity or culture.

My religion objects to so-called holy texts full of violence, brutality and cruelty.
