I've known that for decades.

 RS> Now why is Jesus' birth celebrated on December 25th?

The early Roman Catholic Church made it that way to keep converted pagans from
worshiping their old gods.

 EH>>>>>> Is that so?

 RS>>>>> Damn right.

 EH>>>> Were you there?

The date on that article is today's date. Try again.

Huh? I wasn't even a member when this was said. I joined the Church in 1992.

 RS> Put up or shut up.

If you have evidence I'm a racist, post it. Otherwise, shut up.
