    Because when the church converted these cultures, they also converted the holidays. So, as far as the church is concerned, the holidays are as much christian as they are originally pagan.

    xtians tend to follow alot of pagan rituals, while at the same time condemning them, but remove the rituals, and they have no religion

    That is why I don't celebrate Christmas and Easter. God was very specific about mixing demonic rituals in with the worship of Him. The only ritual I perform is the last supper, because Jesus asked us to do it in remembrance of Him.

    Ignorance, most christians, don't realize that the major celebrations within their religion are copied from pagans and others that they rail against.
