It was actually a pagan holiday before it was Christmas. 
Just about every ancient culture celebrated the Winter Solstice... and the Spring Equinox...

Those christians are a wiley bunch...
A "holiday tree" is actually a more accurate term, long before christmas trees (very few people had christmas trees before the 20th century) the holiday tree was a traditional pagan thing.
Pagan stuff is cool...............
Early Christians often assimilated the pagan holidays in an effort to help convert the pagans to Christianity. Christs birthday was moved to December to try and entice the pagans over to Christianity... "C'mon... convert... you know you want to... tell ya what, we'll let you bring your holidays with you!"SkaredShtles said:It was actually a pagan holiday before it was Christmas.
No it's not.SkaredShtles said:
But like I tell my wicca/pagan/earth mother friends... why pray to the creation when you can pray to the creator?
You people who believe in nothing would do best to just ignore this thread and any celebrations and/or festivities associated with the season.

Wull, I plan to be standing in the snow in front of a fire on the 21st of December just to make sure the sun comes back. The reason for the season and all that.
