Christ was not born in the winter, but you know who was? All the pagan sun gods from Osiris to Apollo. Why do we carry on with the occultism of the yule log (Nimrod shedding his humanity), cover our homes with laurels and wreaths (offerings to Saturn), and evergreen tree with gifts (Nimrod ascending to god-hood/immortality)? If Christians truly made it their own, why purport the paganist traditions of this holiday? Do you think we truly claimed it for our own or that we were deceived by Satan just as God prophesized in Revelation (12:9)?

I find this bit interesting:

“At the time of persecution, Christians were detected by NOT decorating their houses at the Saturnalia. The ancient Christians were puritanically jealous of anything that might seem like coquetting with idolatry. “ -Crippen

Here's a question for ya: If the Vatican issued a statement that Halloween was going to become a Christianized holiday, would you suddenly be okay with it?
