Taking Back Christmas
from Press On Journal · host Gary Davison
Christmas originated from early Christians calculating the date of Jesus' birth, not from co-opting pagan festivals. Evidence suggests the December 25th date was set before later pagan festivals adopted it; alleged pagan origins like Saturnalia, Tammuz, Mithras, and Yule lack credible evidence of predating or influencing Christmas celebrations.
