Doesn't Linus have the most annoying little kid voice in this clip? Great Christmas special but Linus sounds like that creepy kid in the Shining doing his "Tony" voice. At the end he calls Charlie Brown "Chullie Brun"!

This is what Christmas is REALLY ABOUT!
Christmas,also referred to as Christmas Day or Christmastide, is an annual holiday celebrated on December 25 that marks and honors the birth of Jesus of Nazareth. His birth, which is the basis for the Anno Domini system of dating, has been determined by modern historians as having occurred between 7 and 2 BC.
The date of ... ( 2 days ago by PreacherTHC)
The date of celebration is not thought to be Jesus' actual date of birth, and may have been chosen to coincide with ancient Roman solar festivals that were held on December 25.
Modern customs of the holiday include gift-giving, church celebrations, and the display of various decorations—including the Christmas tree, lights, mistletoe, nativity scenes and holly.

Santa Claus (also referred to as Father Christmas, although the two figures have different origins) is a popular mythological figure often associated with bringing gifts at Christmas. Santa is generally believed to be the result of a syncretization between St. Nicholas of Myra and elements from pagan Nordic and Christian mythology, and his modern appearance is believed to have originated in 19th century media.

Christmas is celebrated throughout the Christian population, but is also celebrated by many non-Christians as a secular, cultural festival. The holiday is widely celebrated around the world, including in the United States, where it is celebrated by 96% of the population. Because gift-giving and several other aspects of the holiday involve heightened economic activity among both Christians and non-Christians, Christmas has become a major event for many retailers.
The word Christmas ... ( 2 days ago by PreacherTHC)
The word Christmas originated as a compound meaning"Christ's mass".It is derived from the Middle English Christemasse and Old English Cristes mæsse,a phrase first recorded in 1038."Cristes" is from Greek christos and "mæsse"is from Latin missa.

For many centuries, ... ( 2 days ago by PreacherTHC)
For many centuries, Christian writers accepted that Christmas was the actual date on which Jesus was born. In the early eighteenth century, scholars began proposing alternative explanations. Isaac Newton argued that the date of Christmas was selected to correspond with the winter solstice, which in ancient times was marked on December 25.

In 1743, German Protestant Paul Ernst Jablonski argued Christmas was placed on December 25 to correspond with the Roman solar holiday Dies Natalis Solis Invicti and was therefore a "paganization" that debased the true church. In 1889, Louis Duchesne suggested that the date of Christmas was calculated as nine months after March 25, the traditional date of the conception of Jesus.On the Roman calendar, March 25 was the date of the spring equinox. In modern times, it is celebrated as Annunciation.

Mosaic of Jesus as Christo Sole (Christ the Sun)in Mausoleum M in the pre-fourth-century necropolis under St Peter's Basilica in Rome. Christians consider Jesus to be the"sun of righteousness" prophesied in Malachi4:2.
A winter festival was the most popular festival of the year in many cultures. Reasons included the fact that less agricultural work needs to be done during the winter, as well as people expecting longer days and shorter nights after the winter solstice in the Northern Hemisphere.

Modern Christmas with pagan customs include: gift-giving and merrymaking from Roman Saturnalia; greenery, lights, and charity from the Roman New Year; and Yule logs and various foods from Teutonic feasts. Pagan Scandinavia celebrated a winter festival called Yule, held in the late December to early January period. As Northern Europe was the last part to Christianize, its pagan traditions had a major influence on Christmas.

Scandinavians still call Christmas Jul. In English, the word Yule is synonymous with Christmas, a usage first recorded in 900.
Dies Natalis Solis ... ( 2 days ago by PreacherTHC)
Dies Natalis Solis Invicti
Dies Natalis Solis Invicti means "the birthday of the unconquered Sun." The use of the title Sol Invictus allowed several solar deities to be worshipped collectively, including Elah-Gabal, a Syrian sun god; Sol, the god of Emperor Aurelian; and Mithras, a soldiers' god of Persian origin. Emperor Elagabalus (218222) introduced the festival, and it reached the height of its popularity under Aurelian, who promoted it as an empire-wide holiday.
This day had held ... ( 2 days ago by PreacherTHC)
This day had held no significance in the Roman festive calendar until it was introduced in the third century.
The festival was placed on the date of the solstice because this was on this day that the Sun reversed its southward retreat and proved itself to be "unconquered." Several early Christian writers connected the rebirth of the sun to the birth of Jesus. "O, how wonderfully acted Providence that on that day on which that Sun was born...Christ should be born", Cyprian wrote.
John Chrysostom ... ( 2 days ago by PreacherTHC)
John Chrysostom also commented on the connection: "They call it the 'Birthday of the Unconquered'. Who indeed is so unconquered as Our Lord . . .?"

some people have to take it upon themselves to be intellectual. They can be, and I can choose not to read their ramblings.
Soon, there will be no mystery nor magic to any of our customs because people have become so concerned to uphold intelligence and constantly analyze things.
