Quote:
It's not a pagan holiday. It's merely celebrated on the same day as a pagan holiday. There's a difference.




of course, i was careful with making the title of the thread.

I would like to throw this quote out there though, I believe Joe Rogan said it once.

""What's in a name? That which we call a rose By any other word would smell as sweet.""

eastern = original to solar equinox, beginning of the new year (as you see at the names of the months: september=7,october=8,december=10) and therefore the real beginning and victory of the sun over the night. Equals, the true rebirth, while winter-solstice (christmas) is 'only' the turn around of the sun in the realms of the night, the turnover-point, an offspring before the breakthrough, the rpocreation before birth and for spirituals, the physical birth before the spiritual awakeing, or something like that :wink:

I myself enjoy the consumerism and over-consumption associated with receiving large amounts of presenrs and eating huge Christmas dinners.
