NeoverseOmega Posted December 18, 2003 Share Posted December 18, 2003 It's beginning to look a lot like Macross everywhere I gooooo. Of course I'm more than a little cracked. Happy Holidays to everyone who contributes to this community - ranging from the venerable head honchos like Graham and Shawn, to the omnipresent mods, the customizers that captivate our imaginations, and even the random kidder that adds a little humor to our days. Thank you all for enriching our illness - amen and hallelulia (Anybody know when the Hoary Froating Head's birthday is? I think we need to make it a holiday).

Agent ONE Posted December 19, 2003 Share Posted December 19, 2003 Never liked Christmas... I find the concept of Santa to be kinda scary... Maybe it has something to do with that day when I was a kid when a shopping mall Santa killed my Dad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

007-vf1 Posted December 21, 2003 Share Posted December 21, 2003 Merry Christ day wishes to everybody. I agree about this holidays season being a cash-cow-masoquistic-have-to-have-it time. But man, this means I get a paid vacation week. hurray for santa...or whatever that fat guy's name is... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duke Togo Posted December 21, 2003 Share Posted December 21, 2003 I'd like to say that Jesus wasn't born on Christmas, and that it was a Roman pagan holiday appropiated by the Emperor Constantine (first Christian Roman Emperor) to help bring the Roman Empire together. As an Italian, I have more right to this holiday than the rest of you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nightbat Posted December 21, 2003 Share Posted December 21, 2003 Actually it's also a European Pagan holliday, celebrating the turnpoint where daylight increases again and me as part of the ancient german race am entitled to it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duke Togo Posted December 21, 2003 Share Posted December 21, 2003 Actually it's also a European Pagan holliday, celebrating the turnpoint where daylight increases againand me as part of the ancient german race am entitled to it We're both correct. The date of December 25th probably originated with the ancient "birthday" of the son-god, Mithra, a pagan deity whose religious influence became widespread in the Roman Empire during the first few centuries A.D. Mithra was related to the Semitic sun-god, Shamash, and his worship spread throughout Asia to Europe where he was called Deus Sol Invictus Mithras. Rome was well-known for absorbing the pagan religions and rituals of its widespread empire. As such, Rome converted this pagan legacy to a celebration of the god, Saturn, and the rebirth of the sun god during the winter solstice period. The winter holiday became known as Saturnalia and began the week prior to December 25th. The festival was characterized by gift-giving, feasting, singing and downright debauchery, as the priests of Saturn carried wreaths of evergreen boughs in procession throughout the Roman temples. Christmas as we know it is based upon this Roman holiday, and it was Constantine who was responsible for making it a Christian holiday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
