But then how many Christians really understand the meaning of said to be Christian holidays/celebrations?
For example Christmas, said to be the birthday of Christ but actually an adopted ritual of pagan origin celebrating the winter equinox to endorse pagans to convert to Christianity devised by the Roman Catholics.
Christ's birthday is now speculated by scholars to be sometime in mid April studying the biblical account comparing them with meteorological data and customs.
Halloween is also I believe a pagan celebration to celebrate year's harvest.
Exchange of rings is a Roman custom before Christianity set in.
