Origin of Christmas?

 

Origin of Christmas?

1] People used to celebrate #saturnalia [ Birthday of Saturn]  on 25th of December before Christianity came into existence.
According to #Roman mythology, Saturn was the son of Uranus (the sky) and Gaia (the Earth) same as Jesus is allegedly thought  to be the son of God. 
2] Later on, Christians hijacked saturnalia and renamed it 'Christmas'. Thus , they stole this festival from the Roman mythology in the Mediaeval Times. In 17th-century England, Christmas was banned by Puritans, but it was later reinstated during the Restoration.
3] In the United States, the 19th century saw the revival of Christmas traditions, influenced by German immigrants and the publication of Clement Clarke Moore's "A Visit from St. Nicholas" (1823).
4] Modern Christmas customs, including Santa Claus, became more standardized in the 20th century through  literature, movies , advertising and popular culture.

==============
Dear Christians, kindly don't feel hurt and start seeking the truth. Once people believed that 'Earth is flat' but that was not true. I guess the following clues will open your eyes:

1] Jesus was born in 4 BC and disappeared in 33 CE . The Bible mentions his birth and his so called death . Why is the so called book of God , the #Bible silent on childhood , teenage and early youth of Jesus ? Did Jesus really exist ?

2] According to "The Oxford Handbook of Religious Conversion", in mid-2005  approximately 11.7 million white people left  Christianity.

3] How many sons does the  God of the Bible has ?

#Divid is God's Son . [Psalms 2:07]

#Israel is God's Son . [ Exodus 4:22]

#Solomon is God's son . [ 2 Samuel 7:14 ]

#Jesus is God's son .

4] What silly Christians believe:
''Once God came in the world & people caught Him, thrashed Him & put Him on a wooden cross. He wept saying 'Eloi Eloi Lamasabaktani' ''

*Silly Christians no longer worry about the #errors in the Bible. All they do is to sing hymns, drink wine and abuse non-christians.

*Jesus was never called 'Jesus' in his lifetime. #Yeshua was his name. 'Jesus' was invented later by jokers.  Those who say 'Jesus' 'Jesus'  are like the person who calls me 'Tom' 'Tom' knowing my name is not Tom. 😂

*If Jesus is God, why did he have to hang Himself to forgive people? He could forgive us without any drama like a true gentleman.

*If Jesus is God and love , what did he create then hellfire for? Will Jesus burn anyone in Hell? If yes, Is he truly love then ?

*''Name the people who believe that God killed Himself on the cross to save His people from His Hellfire? ''

*Jesus : ''I am my son but I am my father too. Actually, we are two but basically we are one. I killed myself on the cross to save my followers from my Hellfire. I am love  and love does not burn people. But, I made hellfire, I don't know why?'' 😂

Nonsense means modern #Christianity. Please, seek the truth. Your priests and clergy are befooling you for their vested interests.
