[quote="[DAS REICH] Blitz":bc52d][quote="Mr.Buttocks":bc52d] Anyway, I seem to remember that there was a pagan holiday on the 25th of December, so I'm guessing the Christians hijacked it.[/quote:bc52d]

Mithranism was the religion. December 25th was the birth of Mithra... i know this because i did a test on it.[/quote:bc52d]
It's a holiday for every pagan religion. For the roman's it was Saturnalia, which is what Christmas officially bastardized. Most pagan religions have a winter solstice celebration around dec 20th.
