    I know of 4 names: Noel, Christmas, X-Mas, and Yuletide. Do you know of
    any others?

    What we now call "Christmas" is nothing but the old Winter Solstice
    celebration. Everything about Christmas is Pagan, except the name.

    Just as you haven't learned that most of your posting is OT for most of the
    groups you're crossposting to;
    Nearly ALL 'holidays' have a pagan origin. It was the abuse of 'RELIGION'
    power to force 'conversion' and wipe out anything that didn't agree.

    MORE people have been killed (murdered) in the name(s) of "RELIGION" than
    any other single cause.

    More, even, than in WWI and WWII combined!
