Did you know?
Xmas is an old Nordic celebration of the New Year. The tree is meant to be decorated with "amanita muscaria" (white and red hallucinogenic mushroom) that reindeer used to eat in winter time. And people to intoxinate themselves.
When Christianity made it's way up to north, they had to think something to make them celebrate something at that time, so they made it the "birthday of Christ". Reindeers fly because of that etc...
It has nothing to do with any Abrahamic faith. If you do, then you're doing it wrong.
I'm not trying to ruin your "christmass" but make it right.
I don't give a fuck, I just want to eat tons of ham, graavilohi and chocolate
>flying reindeer have nothing to do with Christianity

Yes, of course it does. How stupid of me.
This is true. In Siberian Shamanism they used to feed Amanita to Reindeer and drink the urine(to remove the side effects) and get crazy high.

Retarded much? Probably just acting.
Pukki/cock came in sledge to gift the children and the shaman told stories, fortune etc. Pukki/bock is a male reindeer, to which JOULU(Yule)pukki/bock is costumed to. While enjoying a white/red mushroom called kärpässieni drained for the occasion under the protection of a spruce tree.
