Ah yes, Christmas trees and gifts, the most christian of traditions. Who could forget the iconic parts of the Bible where Jesus suddenly explained the advent of Capitalism and how we should use this one day for even more Capitalism. Kinda lazy of those early christians to wait about 1600 years before they started decorating trees just like the Bible always said to - no wonder God fucked them over so much in the past.
That’s a much better answer than “nobody loves you.”
Pagan holiday highjacked by Christians.
Pagan solstice>Roman celebrating Saturnus adapted to include Galec and Germanic cultures>Christian Jesus born but not really so how accurate do we think we’ve recorded this word of god?
Jesus fathered himself after raping his own mother.
That’s pretty Zeus
„In short, we have no clear evidence that a festival dedicated to Sol Invictus was celebrated on December 25 prior to the Christian celebration of Christmas on that date. More importantly, we do not have any evidence that such a pre-existing festival presented the impetus for celebrating Jesus’s birth on this day. The popularity of this assertion and various sub-assertions around it (such as its institution by Aurelian) is not commensurate with its evidential basis.“

How high are you?
Edit: oh boy. I simply referred to that they wrote hiGHjacked and not hijacked. It was a word joke, a pun.
Doesn’t matter , he’s right. Are u unaware??? That’s hilariously sad.
Why do Christians participate in the pagan traditions on Christmas?
This isn’t murdering by words, and it’s probably the least convincing response possible. A good response would be to point out the origin of the date of Christmas and what Christmas trees originally meant, which has fuckall to do with Christ as they are pagan in origin.
The impression I get from this sort of screenshot is that people on Twitter are mean spirited and kinda dumb
That’s a pretty good summary of the platform honestly. You’re just missing how everyone thinks they’re a novel genius of sorts
How do you know nobody loves them? It’s just a hateful response that makes us look bad
Agreed. Better to point out that is was not originally a Christian holiday, and is now more of a consumerist one.
I always love when people downvote an objective truth (your comment in this case) that has no sign of a weird agenda or anything bad about it, simply because they feel personally attacked because they liked something that is easily criticized
