The hidden history of christmas

What hidden history?
All Christians know the history of it.
Santa is based on a Saint from north European counties not evil.
Evil Santa is called Krampus.

Because the Christians didn't want to buy their kids presents on Christmas, rather, they left it to some pagan myth to get the job done, does that mean Santa is the world's first outsourced job?
 


old cat-----you posted up a really idiotic piece of islamo-Nazi propagandaist shit-----The jerk narrator got the simplest details ALL SCREWED up------reminds me of the very first Khutbah Jumaat feces fling I heard MANY DECADES ago. That one was equally idiotic was designed to be a fart on
the holiday---Easter
 
Santa is Saint Nicolas of Anatolia, now Turkey. His day is December 5, not Christmas, Christmas is December 25, the winter solstice 2000 years ago at Jesus's birth. You can learn this little Christianity without getting cursed by your joojoo gods people.
 
Christmas is Christian tradition. An evil looking Santa is pop idiocy. Try the "hidden history of Ramadan" and see if you get out of the studio without being a victim of a freaking IED.
 
The Roman festival Saturnalia morphed into present day Christmas

Lots of drinking, gambling, partying, animal sacrifices to Saturn, masters served their slaves during the festivals... Really great stuff.

Christians naturally keep this tradition going to this day; preserving an early festival by making sacrifices to the god "Capitalism"

Xmas is one of 2 days that I attend Catholic Mass.

The other is Easter.
 
Nice....................Christians get a pagan myth to deliver presents to their kids on the birthday of their saviour.


Not his actual birthday, but Christians know that too. :)
Correct.

Jesus was probably born in the springtime, summer, or autumn.

Caesar Augustus would not have called for a census in the middle of winter in the Roman Empire.

It rains too much in December then.
 
The season of festivals:


Gift giving is one of the oldest customs associated with Christmas: It is actually older than the holiday itself. When the date of Christmas was set to fall in December, it was done at least in part to compete with ancient pagan festivals that occurred about the same time. The Romans, for example, celebrated the Satumalia on December 17th. It was a winter feast of merry-making and gift exchanging. Two weeks later, on the Roman New Year - January 1- houses were decorated with greenery and lights, and gifts were given to children and the poor. As the Germanic tribes of Europe accepted Christianity and began to celebrate Christmas, they also gave gifts.

Ancient, pre-Christian winter festivals used greenery, lights and fires to symbolize life and warmth in the midst of cold and darkness. The use of evergreens and wreaths as symbols of life was an ancient custom of the Egyptians, Chinese and Hebrews, among other groups. Tree worship was a common feature of religion among the Tectonic and Scandinavian people of northern Europe before their conversion to Christianity.
