Murdock, the Romans placed all Christian holidays on the dates of pagan celebrations. It was one of the ways they convinced pagans to become Christians. Easter -- that was Oester, the Spring Equinox. They also built churches right on top of sacred pagan sites. I'm not dissing Catholicism. Just stating facts.
 
I’m a confirmed Catholic… I’ve heard these theories for years. I also follow astrology… so you’re not going to get me around the Jupiter phenomenon that is the star of Bethlehem…. Which is what the 3 kings followed through the desert. Also, it’s Christmas Eve eve… time for peace and reflection… not debate. Peace be with guy and yours this holiday season.
 
Wasn't really going for a debate. Just stating what I feel about the season. It's very meaningful to me, too, but for different reasons. Peace to you, too.
