Probably not. But it's when we celebrate it. Have you never celebrated an event on a day OTHER than when it historically occurred? In my family, 3 of us siblings were born in May. We usually had 1 day where we celebrated all 3. None of us whined or screamed that it was historically inaccurate.
And yet your parents never forgot your actual birthdays.
So strange that the creator of the universe failed to record the date of the most important birthday in history.
None of us whined or screamed that it was historically inaccurate.
Your Christian bretheren scream and shout when schools are not required to celebrate Christmas, or when they try and exchange it for a secular and non-partisan holiday celebration.
Truth is not important to them, that's why they reject every scrap of verifiable evidence that shows their bible contains falsehoods.. The only thing that matters to them is that they like it.
That's pretty much true of all "isms" and "creeds". So long as it's acceptable and/or desirable (or PROFITABLE), that is all that matters - so to h*ll with any TRUTHS!
Or if it don't get you tortured and killed, it must have been seriously hard for a Christian to keep the feast of Tabernacles back in the day. You either Christianized the accepted Pagan high holy day or you died for keeping the appointed days of Jesus.
The advent of video has put the power in the hands of ordinary people, not the mainstream propaganda machine. This ungodly society hates it!
So do you think this pastor was right in telling someone else's kids that Santa is not real? You have a Christian telling the children of other Christians children that Santa is not real and you make it into something about an ungodly society (whatever that is) ?
No wonder some people can't stand Christians. This idiot pastor doesn't realize his God doesn't exist either. Yes, your Bible is full of fairy tales also. The Santa fairy tale is WAY BETTER than the Bible fairy tales.
I, and the rest of my 1st grade classmates were told there was no Santa by the teacher. I already knew there wasn't, but I told my mother of the teacher's statement. My mother became furious. I don't know if she actually lodged a complaint or not, but she was ticked.
My ladyfriend is a real anomaly. She is a smart woman, and was a good student in school, but she confesses to having a Santa Claus belief until the age of 12 or 13.
