Christmas The Spirit And Beyond
Christmas
As we all know Christmas commemorates the birth of Jesus, by our limited knowledge. Christians believed Jesus had been conceived, the date of the Roman winter solstice. Winter Solstice marks the longest night of the year, when earth is farthest from the sun. Since the days are getting longer and the nights shorter, this day marks the victory of Sun over the darkness.
So now we have a little bit of an idea of what it actually is.
