>>316825685
Christmas hasn't had anything to do with Christianity in centuries, people just like giving and getting gifts to/from each other
>>316825878
But then why call it Christmas? Why not call it "End of the year giving party" instead?
You get tasty food and gifts, why wouldn't you celebrate Christmas?
It's 2015 mate, religion is fucking aids.
>>316825878
But it originated from Christianity you dumbass. It makes no sense for it to exist in a world without it.

Yeah, that's why the Bible says it's good to decorate a tree for a holiday.
No wait, it says that's bad.

No turkey in Japan.
>>316827118
This one of the biggest troubles I'm having with this fantasy story I'm writing, trying to talk about days,yeas and seasons without actually mentioning the Roman styles.
>>316826801
Yes it does.
In Japan and the rest of the civilized world it's just a holiday where you trade presents.
>>316825685
They celebrate "the holidays".
>neo-pagan babbies whining about muh cultural appropriation
The reason Roman Catholics incorporated native traditions was so that they could still practice them while also being under the grace of God. There's literally no reason break off into your new age shit
>>316826801
>But it originated from Christianity you dumbass
No it didn't. It was a Pagan holiday that Christians took and turned into something else. It doesn't even line up when any plausible time when Jesus could've actually been born.
>>316825685
Sorry to break it to you but the festivity you know as "Christmas" was really a pagan tradition where men would exchange gifts have gay sex and beat their wives all while eating and getting drunk. Christians hijacked it because they could not get rid of it.
>>316828869
Sounds like a great game!

Don't remind me of that piece of shit holiday special.Fuck you Doc you brother fucking faggot
>>316835614
Why not? If their world has seasons, they'll have at least one seasonal festivity. And if they have it, there's no need to call it some silly made up name, you can just call it Christmas. That's what suspension of disbelief is for.
>>316834037
If Christianity doesn't exist than in turn the Church doesn't exist, meaning there is no unifying force tying together multiple different pagan traditions.
>>316836491
>If Christianity doesn't exist than in turn the Church doesn't exist
Sure, cause Muslims don't have their own church or anything. Nor Shintoism, nor any other religions. Are you an idiot?
>>316836728
I don't recall Islam or Shintoism being the official state religions of the Roman empire or being a major force in Europe when pagan traditions were still practiced.
>>316837084
They could had been, though. Remember than the Muslims did invade parts of Europe.

The Bible itself says Jesus was born in late summer, probably around September.

In other words, it's a chicken and gifts day, no one actually knows what they're celebrating.
Disgusting.
>>316838071
>no one actually knows what they're celebrating.
Of course they do, the winter solstice, like everybody else in the world, duh.
>>316829487
go back to paris
>>316837503
Alternatively Islam may have left those traditions alone, just implementing a special tax on worshipers like they did for Christians and Jews, granted those two were considered People of the Book and were likely exceptions.
So again you're left without a unifying force outside of perhaps some kind of empire.
This doesn't even take into consideration whether the commercialization would have even taken place.
>>316838071
>chicken and gifts day
It's a couple's holiday. People go out on dates.
>>316838071
Sound about the same for the US as well. Hell even non-Christians who bitch into having stores saying Happy Holidays instead of Merry Christmas still celebrate it never the less even though they were so offended by it.

Coca Cola didn't invent him. They popularized that particular design of him.

You know, you don't sound very christian in the first place. Getting all upset because people are doing things on a day that doesn't really have anything to do with your religion in the first place.
Oh wait, i forgot, for catholics the catholic church is their religion, not christianity. Makes sense now.
>>316825685
Christmas has nothing to do with religion
>>316825685
They could celebrate Yule or a goddamn winter solstice dude.
