happy Christ wasn't really born on this day but we pretend he was anyway day. (and of course, 99% of Christians don't know this)

The one thing he didn't mention about the Puritans outlawing Christmas (and, they really did), is because their particular belief in their all-loving Jesus allowed them to absolutely hate Catholicism, and to be fair, vice versa. In fact, the word "Christmas" is only a slight derivation of the old Catholic celebration of Christ's Mass.
I wonder how the fire breathing evangelical protestants would feel if they knew their phony War on Christmas was, in fact, support of an organization which many of them consider "The Whore of Babylon" - the Catholic Church.
