 Just as Easter and Christmas, though Christian in their roots

Haha, why repost this crap? If they don't know anything about religion, why should we listen to their ramblings?


christmas is a christian holiday, is it not? or does some other religion celebrate birth of christ?

Jesus was actually born in the summer (August, I believe), and most biblical scholars agree with this POV. What you today call Christmas was a pagan holiday which christians hijacked because people didn't wanna give up celebrating it. Christmas is part of christianity's 'pagan heritage'. Lot's of people today associate it more with Santa Clause and giving and recieving presents rather than with the birth of Jesus.
