Default Christmas as it should be

Nellen,

I suggest, if Christ is that important to you, You learn how his
Birthday became Dec. 25.

It was by decree of a Pagan Ruler (Constantan) who was a Sun worshiper.
He decided Dec 25 because that was the birthday of Mitha a Sun God.

Jesus's birthday was set 365 years after his death. It was Necine Conf.
decision. When the representatives (Bishops) couldn't decide they left
it up to Constantan, the Roman Ruler, who called for the conference.

It really doesn't matter. What matters is the teachings of Christ. Love!
Love thy God, Love thy Neighbor as thyself!
