the clues with yon shepherds watching they're sock's by night.....

whenever sheep are born out there......that's the time of year we'd be looking at.....

plus the fact that Christmas as we know it falls on the same day as a druidic winter festival......and the roman's once they'd gone over to christianity hijacked it and made it the festival of Christ's birth.

naffin to do with busy shops etc.......

Why does Christmas come when its freezing?, he was born in a desert country FFS.And his date of birth is a guess.

It is thought by scholars that He was born between August-September. So perhaps we can go back to celebrating the old Pagan year's end and the coming of Spring seperately and just let Christians celebrate Christmas (at Mass) in September without all the hypocritical exchanging of gifts and gluttony. The rest of us could then ignore Christmas and celebrate the New Year using Santa's defunct balls to ring out the old year and ring in the new.
