One thing that isn’t in the Bible? Christmas.
Because Christmas is as much about Christianity as my rear end. It’s a nice festivity that comes from old customs, and nobody has a problem with keeping the nicer parts of culture and customs while filtering out the crappy parts.
Why do Christians? Jesus was born in the summer.
Both of those traditions are pagan anyway
Why do Christians put up saturnalia trees? 😝😝
A fun tradition is a fun tradition.
Saturnalia trees are probably a myth.
The first references we have to Christmas trees are in 16th century Germany. They probably didn’t come directly from any pagan traditions seeing as Germany had been Christian for multiple centuries at that point.
Fair…. Then why do Christian’s celebrate “Coca-Cola”? lol
Current Santa is from Coke lol
Lol it’s so deeply ingrained right in front of everyone’s nose. Magic Santa, magic reindeer, magic elves and that’s just the stuff before propaganda like Rudolph and Frosty came around.
God forbid I get a Harry Potter book on Christmas and being magical thinking into this mess.
Old St.Nic is only dressed in red cause of coca-cola, more a capitalist celebration than a Christian one at this point
please don’t embarrass Kevin Sorbo. Lucy Lawless has done it enough times.
I personally think it’s fantastic when, every Dec 25th, the world comes together to celebrate Isaac Newton’s birthday.
when the sciencemas tree gets filled with presents by darwin claus
Except that according to the Gregorian Calendar he was born January 4th, 1643.
You’re a mean one, Mr. Grinch.
