If you've done things right, people won't be sure if you've done anything at all.

St. Nicholas was Turkish. He only droped bags of gold down the chiminy's of girls he liked. Also almost all christian tradidition (at-least in America) can be traced back to pegan rituals. Speeking of which nobody wished people a happy Yule. (Winter Soltice). I would have if I was around.

If i remember correctly the reason Christmas is on the 25th December is because that was the date of a Roman festival and the early Christians chose that date to celebrate without drawing attention.<br>Also there is all that issue over Jesus having actually been born at 4 BC. Something to do with the calender and astronomical data, i can't remember too well.
