Therefore no, it had no true meaning in the beginning. It's never been true.
But why did 'Christmas' become a holiday? Doen't it relate to the 'Birth of Jesus'

And isn't a bit extrene to say its never been true. Thats a diffrent issue, and dont you think it's impossible to say that there definetle has been no religion?

P.S - I am not arguing, I am trying to get a depate going
Jesus wasn't even born on Dec. 25th though - so why did they choose an original pagan festival date to make 'Christmas' ?

Also, I didn't say there was no religion - I accept people have religion and faith even if I don't - I meant just this particular holiday.
I heard that too - Jesus was apparently 'born' in may! <(How would someone know the month?)

But wasnt the meaning of Christmas to celebrate the birth of Jesus, God's son?
