It's actually not a pagan holiday.
One of the pagan Roman emperors adopted the Dec25 date because Christians that were former hebrews had started celebrating Hanukkah on a fixed day on the Julian Calendar, which landed on Dec25.
Jesus was supposedly conceived on March25. March25 + 9mo = Dec25. Which is where Christian's got jesus's birthday from.
It's a whole thing if you want to look into it. Both Pagan and christian symbolism are predated in cuneiform writings, so I don't really give a fuck.
Humanity is way older than 5,500 years, and the ancient tribes all over the Globe worshipped the Sun and Stars thousands of years before Sumero-Akkadian cuneiform writings even existed.
Here's some evidence from the people of the Indigenous Zuni Pueblo nation in western New Mexico. https://youtu.be/g5C0qQMsiBY?t=2130
Saturnalia is 17-23. Winter solstice the 21st. I'm speaking of the 25th.
Emperor Aurelian established Solis Invicti being celebrated on Dec25 in 274.
March 25 is absolutely the day Christians have decided Jesus was conceived. It's a feast day. It does not go against scripture according to them.
I don't give a fuck.
