Why Pagan holidays instead of God's Holy Days? [Spirituality & Religion]

Why is it that those who profess to follow and obey Christ are so ready to observe, defend and promote Pagan festivals, which believers are repeatedly told not to do, and to dispense with and ignore God's appointed Holy Days as found in Scripture, which things we are specifically told to observe, defend and promote?

Because it is not stated in scripture which dates the days fall on, it's down to translation and each translation is different, the other problem is that some of the"holy days" were in fact already pagan festivals that organised religions stole, why do you think easter moves? We celebrate the waking of mother earth and the rebirth of the planet, you celebrate the rising from the dead of Gods son, surely that was a big enough deal for at least one person to remember the date?

@Johnblackthorn Actually, if you look in the Bible, the dates for God's appointed Holy Days are recorded quite clearly. Passover, for example, is the 14th day of Nisan on the Hebraic calendar, and always falls on that exact date every year.
