Please comprehend the following article and let me know what you think.
DURING the winter of 2004, the Christmas season in Italy was conspicuous by a lively debate. Some educators and teachers supported the idea of reducing to a minimum

In invalid you haven't noticed, the Christmas tree is a part of world tradition, not Catholic tradition. Wedding rings have their creation in paganism too. Do you find it acceptable that your minister gives a seemingly Christian meaning to a symbol that

No I reflect on it is not possible: because the whole point of Christmas is the birth of Christ, which the word Christmas comes from the word CHRIST. Paganism was a contumacy of Christian faith in England in the Early Ages so no sorry... :-(

Christian way of life evolved from Pagan culture. Christian holy days are the same kinds of holy days people practiced for millennium except with unalike wrapping paper. At least Catholics are coming to terms with real history and adapting. I say, kudos.
