Christmas Carols: You can't sing that in here, do it somewhere else!

You missed it entirely again, but what is new? Christianity was not fabricated by men but religion (there is a vast difference between Christianity and religion) calling itself Christianity has be subverted and tainted by men.

Spot on!

I vaguely remember reading about the pagan rite identified with the winter solstice and Saturnalia.

But, I was just wondering if, down the centuries, someone - maybe a catholic bishop might have realised the story and events surrounding the birth of the Christ Child, and the Three Wisemen bearing gifts, and decided that this was not such a bad idea afterall.

That it might have then developed or evolved into what we've been celebrating down the centuries.

Just a thought.

No, let's blame all that on Hallmark and Toys R Us.



j/k!!!!! I don;t know where it came from either, but it should be interesting finding out.

Christmas is about all of it. Songs, religion, gifts and . If you don't want to sing along that's fine. Sit back and listen or go away.

The site I quoted earlier in this thread has some good information. The history is as I stated in the quote.

Christmas carols are worse than elevator music. Grandma got run over by a reindeer is my favorite.
