Christmas didn't happen. We made it up to celebrate Christ who had to be born, so he could atone for our sins and die for us to be resurrected. Thus, he saved us from our sins, which he could not do if he did not come to earth and receive a body.

Winter solstice.
"No one's really sure how long ago humans recognized the winter solstice and began heralding it as a turning point -- the day that marks the return of the sun. One delightful little book written in 1948, 4,000 Years of Christmas, puts its theory right up in the title. The Mesopotamians were first, it claims, with a 12-day festival of renewal, designed to help the god Marduk tame the monsters of chaos for one more year."

I hate Christmas. It happens because of greed and the true meaning is that plastic will eventually destroy the earth.

Christmas is a time to celebrate Jesus Christ's coming to earth so that he could die on the cross for YOUR sins!! He died for everyone, and Christmas is a time to celebrate and thank God for the oppurtunity to follow him!!
