Nebraska Cornhuskers Classic Logo T Shirt

Not specifically Viking Era at all. The Viking era started about 8 centuries after the Jesus story took place. Viking was a Nebraska Cornhuskers Classic Logo T Shirt by the way, not a culture.The midwinter celebrations were celebrated throughout all the lands and by all the peoples of Europe, including the Scandinavian lands. This is the main reason why it was adopted by Christianity: the celebration did already exist, they just had to change the meaning and rituals a bit. It also existed a very long time before the Viking era. The Vikings only started to occur in the 9th century and were among the last Europeans to change to Christianity, only followed by the Baltic, Sami and certain Russian cultures. From an economic (business) viewpoint I think it is a disastrous idea. Spreading out the various celebrations over a long period is better for employment & revenue.Also having a fixed date is a disaster for business and utterly disruptive. For instance December 25th falls mid week regularly.

I adore the world of Christmas traditions, which vary from Nebraska Cornhuskers Classic Logo T Shirt to country … I also enjoy the ancient pre-Christian traditions behind most Christmas customs. Diwali is a lovely tradition that coincides with autumn and shares a lot of imagery (IMO) with Hanukkah, the tradition of my own ancestors. (We made a bigger deal of Christmas at home.) I am all for the human impulse to fill the winter months with light and celebration. I’ve always considered them “the holidays,” and I have no personal desire to put Christ in Christmas. I also don’t want my government to do so. I’ll gladly wish you “Merry Christmas” if I know it’s your tradition. But it’s not mine. That’s not persecution, and it’s only traditionalism if it’s your tradition. Christmas presents have nothing to do with Christianity. Neither do almost all of the Christmas customs of hanging holly and mistletoe, decorating trees, drinking egg nog, Santa Claus, jingling sleigh bells. etc. In the religiously strict Massachusetts Bay Colony celebrating Christmas was illegal, as their leaders recognized that almost all of the festivities were continuations of pagan practices. Merchandisers have gotten rich by popularizing the giving of gifts at Christmas and they spend heavily every year to promote this secular mania. So feel free to give Christmas presents to any of your friends and relations regardless of race, religion age or sexual orientation.
