The Origin Of Christmas

The origin of Christmas


Christmas originated from the Saturnalia Festival when the ancient Romans greeted the New Year, and has nothing to do with Christianity. After Christianity prevailed in the Roman Empire, the Holy See incorporated this folk festival into the Christian system, and at the same time celebrated the birth of Jesus. But Christmas is not the birthday of Jesus, because the "Bible" does not record the specific birth time of Jesus, nor does it mention such a festival, which is the result of Christianity absorbing ancient Roman mythology.


Christmas is a traditional western festival, and also the most important festival of the year in many western countries. Every year on this day, cheerful Christmas songs flutter in the streets and alleys, the shopping malls are full of lights and colors, and there is a warm and joyful atmosphere everywhere. In the sweet dreams, the children are looking forward to Santa Claus descending from the sky and bringing the gifts they have dreamed of.
