started out as a pegan holiday, and king constantine didn't like his people celebrating their pegan holiday because he was christian so he decides "I know, I'll tell them it's jesus birthday and they have to celebrate it" which he just pulled that day out of his butt really. it's more much likely jesus was born in june so I've been told. so christmas started out pegan, became christian through a lie, and is now based on greed. how fitting. |

yes, that is rather fitting. The tree came about by the converting of old Germanic tribes who worshipped trees. |

Is there a connection between what John said and the LOTR DVDs? I haven't got them so I'm not being facetious. |

Of course santa likes coke! How else is he to travel the globe delivering gifts in just a single night! |

the encyclopedia explains a lot about the REAL origins of all the christmas 'thingies' like santa claus, the tree, exchanging gifts, etc. and most pagans know that it is a pagan holiday dressed up to be a christian one. so are most so-called christian holidays....so many of the traditions, etc..are pagan in origin. tis interesting to read about it....=0) |

Same with Easter , it comes from the european heathens celebrating "Eostre" , a germanian godess in the spring. Christian misionaries moving among the rugged pagan tribes after Rome fell created alot of fusions , and i don't blame them hehe! Killing christians was a popular hobby at the time , best to go gently with the teachings. |
