[quote=Anonymous]Christmas was originally a pagan holiday stolen by Christians to get the pagans to convert. Christians have a history of stealing other holidays and forcing people to convert, and they still do. Easter eggs and Halloween were originally pagan traditions. Christians also co-opted a few Jewish holidays, made it about Jesus and call it Messianic Judaism. It’s Messianic Christianity. While some Messianic Christians are ethnically Jews, Messianic Christianity is not a part of Judaism. Sorry to get of topic. The original Christmas is a pagan holiday. What does the evergreen tree, music and lots of material gifts have to do with Jesus' birthday? If I wanted to celebrate Jesus birthday, I would create a birthday card for Jesus and sing "Happy Birthday Dear Jesus". Original pagan traditions have nothing to do with Christmas. Christmas has become commercialized and it’s everywhere, and the decorations and songs are fun. Of course I want to join in, even as a Jew.[/quote]
