Historian Richard Rives:
"Our forefathers knew that Christmas has nothing to do with Jesus."
"Was December 25th the birthday of Jesus ? No, it was not, and our forefathers knew that."

Historian Richard Rives:
[ excerpts ]
"Once again, we find sun-worship at the very center of Roman life."
"Did you know that there's an association between chariot racing and the celebration of December 25th ?"
"The birthday of Sol Invictus was celebrated with an additional six chariot races - 30 races on December 25th - the most important
pagan birthday on the entire Roman calendar, as documented by a Christian."
"Over 200 years after the time of Christ, in supposedly "Christian" Rome, and there's no mention of the birth of Christ on that day -
that is no coincidence."
"Our forefathers knew that Christmas has nothing to do with Jesus. It was illegal in England. It was outlawed in New England from 1649 - 1648.
It was condemned for its pagan roots by the Puritans, the Methodists, the Quakers, the Amish, the Presbyterians, and the Baptists."
"It was made a legal holiday in Massachusetts in 1856."
"These are easily confirmed facts that theologians are well aware of."
"Was December 25th the birthday of Jesus ? No, it was not, and our forefathers knew that."
"So how is it possible that this pagan festival has become one of the major components of traditional Christianity ?"
"There is one very good answer: 'Time is the ally of deceit.' "
