Topic: Merry CHRISTmas | |

There I said it not Xmas not Happy Holydays Merry Christmas Did that hurt anyone Nope. Christmas is an adopted and absorbed Pagan holiday and observance of the Winter Solstice. Did that hurt anyone to hear that? nope not at all that is just more of the rich and diverse tradition that Christmas has come to embody over the centuries |

Christmas=Christian Yule=Pagan Its quite simple really. |

I remember reading about the Roman Christian missionaries.
When they arrived to Ireland they preached about the Trinity (father, son, and holy ghost) and the Irish Druids said "we already know about that" It was a Celtic legend and history, wish I could remember what the name of it was |

Essentially the Catholics had to integrate Paganism in order to convert the Pagaini or Pagans. Look up Saint Brigid of Kildare.
