Christmas has been turned to a materialistic ritual of greed and pagan cultures but never forget the birth of christ and doing good on this holiday. [Spirituality & Religion]

Its a christian celebration of the birth of our saviour Jesus who came for all men. Its about doing good and sharing love so dont forget that in the consumer focused culture making millions out of this holiday.

Neither do I. I believe in the one true God, Yahweh, who lives forever.

@GodSpeed63 Yes I know, my imaginary friend the Flying Spaghetti Monster is WAY better than your imaginary friend Yahweh.

Doesnt matter if christians took christmas from pagans. Its our holiday now and Jesus is celebrated every year in christmas so dont turn the celebration of Jesus into a pagan money making ritual!

Christianity stole from Pagans to get more followers actually.

Hence His December 25th birth and a Christmas tree. 🤔

As true Christians, we should act Christ-like everyday.

Are you not familiar with the history of Yule? Ancient people's have celebrated a version of it long before the Jews even existed as a people, let alone their Messiah mythology.

The birth of chirst was not on the day of christmas, and christmas was never christian. It has always been a pagan ritual and then christianity adopted it.

If you want to remember Jesus, then remember the day he died for our sins. Remember the bread and wine.

@MartinTheFirst You need to remember, brother, that the Romans were not particularly nice guys where countries who resisted them were concerned. What better time for Jesus to be born than in the darkest days of the year?

@GodSpeed63 A government, if possible, wouldn't anger their people without reason. While not being nice, they were not stupid

GodSpeed63 · 61-69, M

@MartinTheFirst You're right, they we'ren't stupid but they knew how to treat their captives with excellent cruelty. They were masters at it.

We enjoy it for what it is--enjoying family and attending our church.
