But when was Santa born? And do you have his address cause I've built up a list of around 6,392 things I wanted since I was 5 he never got me yet. Think I'll knock on his door on Thanksgiving, pull him away from watching football and make him ante up a few!

Well, it is now. It wasn't when it was introduced. It was, as you say, a pegan holiday. Later incorporated into the christian religion. Christmas, if you judge by the name and what it represents today, is as you say a religious holiday. Tho the date and setting are not.

Now weather this religion is christianity, materialism or money is up to the individual. But it is something we worship this time of year, no matter who we are or what our views normally are! ^^

How one of the oldest and most "powerful" of them all? Zeus!
With that image, anyone knew he represented power, because all, if nothing else subconsciously, knew that Zeus=power.

Yeah but Zeus picked up chicks as a bull. :twisted:
