Yes, I think so.
There's been a lot of speculation that Jesus would have been born sometime in August/September, and much of what you see as "Christmas traditions" were actually traditions of the Winter Solstice within Paganism. They were adapted to fit 'Christmas' when Christians began trying to convert the Pagan populations. Kind of an intentional blending of intent, with the hope that Pagans would find this acceptable and be more willing to convert, if my understanding is right.
I don't know, I wasn't here last year.

Yes but I think itś worth revisiting. My sister doesn´t celebrate it because of Pagan roots, neither does the Jehovahs Witnesses.Am I having deja vu or did we do this thread last year?

Which Christmas tradition can be traced back to pagan religions, other than the day/date being a holiday.
