Christmas is a 'pagan' custom. The tree, yule log, and even gift giving can be traced to North European Tribes. The Vikings, Celts, and other tribes all had a Dec. fest of some sort. The date and time varied from tribe to tribe. All of this was before any of them heard of Christ. When they were finally converted they brought many of their customs with them.

Christmas is a 'pagan' custom.

Every year we hear that same dull drum. So what? The THEME isn't pagan. The SUBJECT isn't pagan. Okay. It happens to fall on the winter solstice, the Saturnalia, some Druid queen's birthday. The DAY isn't important. But the celebration of the Redeemer's birth IS. And how ashamed He would be if He could see the festival of greed it has become.

I'm a Pagan and I have no problem with Christmas, but I do have a problem with multiculturalists.
