Christmas traditions are so far removed from Jesus and Christianity... They were literally stolen from pagan beliefs that existed before Christianity as a way of converting the pagans to Christianity.

However, they do call it Christmas and I don't see how you'd have that name without having a Christ figure. ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿปโ€โ™‚๏ธ

Their christ, may still be alive as it's meant to celebrate his birth. But isn't whoville all based within a snowflake or something? Like did crist appear in every snowflake? Or are there infinite christs?
