12-30-2006When I argue I get mad and when I get mad I say stuff I shouldn't so please don't start this Happy Holidays crap with me. Christmas is the official holiday not something else so we say Merry Christmas but if it was Ogamogla we would say Merry Ogamogla.
Geesh I have to agree with a tea drinker on this one.

As it did with other pagan practices, the Christians (who were a practical lot) simply co-opted the holiday for their own purposes. The descriptions of the time of Christ's birth from the New Testament clearly indicate that it didn't happen in the winter.

Relax. He's not re-writing history, the Christians are. It's the Winter Solstice Holiday, celebrated by "pagans" for millenia before Christ --- they were happy the sun stopped "disappearing" and saw that it was finally starting to come up earlier each day - which becomes apparent about the 25th.
