[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don't forget the Persian god Mithras, also born on the 25th -- don't know about any tree or gifts associated with him, though.[/quote]

Who could forget the discussion about Mirthras the last time you brought it up, which was maybe a week ago?

Since you clearly want to forget that discussion ever happened, let me summarize for other readers:

You: Mithras!
Another poster: Mirthras existed in parts of Persia but wasn't known in the Roman world until the 2nd century AD. That is, after the gospels were written.
You: Read this Guardian article!
Another poster: That article talks about worshipping the Southern Cross--which can only be seen in the Southern Hemisphere, not from Jerusalem or Rome. (An aside: I read the Guardian every morning myself, but I have to say, that was one of their lamer articles.)[/quote]
For those who actually want to look into this Zeitgeist junk about Horus and Mithras and all that, instead of just parroting something Bill Maher and Richard Dawkins like to spout off about, you'll see that what's really going on is that elements of the Christian faith are being inserted retroactively into these myths. It's a Satanic deception, meant to keep you from your Savior.[/quote]
