Christians are well aware Jesus Christ

 was not born on December 25th, 

that it originally was a pagan holiday.  

We also know that the Christmas tree

 was also a part of another pagan holiday

 but since no one really knows for sure when Christ 

was born we figure we should celebrate his birth

 at some point during the year.

Irony of irony, Schools in America 

are now forced to call Christmas Break, 

the Winter break, store clerks can no longer

 say Merry Christmas for fear of offending

 some non Christian. 

But at the same time we still have 

Halloween and Saint Valentine's day

 with originally were Christian holidays

 as well as Tax Day.  

Why do American celebrate Tax Day, 

April 15th, because this is the actual birth date

 of Jesus.  Keeping in mind the original reason

 Mary and Joseph were in Bethlehem to begin with

 was to pay their fair share of tax to Rome. 

 Just thought I would throw in a little known 

historical fact to keep you on your toes
