That explains why the Romans rounded them up and put them in the arena to be devoured by wild animals.Why would you, since you're not celebrating it.Why wouldn't I say Merry Christmas?Who are "we?" Good to know when you hand out gifts in celebration of hope, peace, and goodwill...you never say, "Merry Christmas."The lights. And no, I do not celebrate peace, hope and goodwill every day. We get too busy, don't we? It doesn't hurt to have a holiday to remind us of what is really important.
And okay, if you are so perfect that you NEVER forget, good for you. I will not include you any longer with average humanity.
You do understand Mary's virginity is not the reason for Christmas , right? We all know, or most of us that Isa 7:14 means young woman, not virgin. The virgin birth is the birth of a new religion , Christianity. Also it was widely accepted in those days to have virgin births, Gods mating with virgins.
good point------Christianity at that time developed as a product of ROMAN "CULTURE"
