Episode Details

The Thinking Fellows discuss the idea that Christmas has pagan roots. They refute the notion that Christians stole critical religious practices and beliefs from older religions. They also discuss the reality of components of Christmas celebrations distinct from faith in Christ, such as Christmas trees, lights, and even the date of celebration, which are handed down pieces of culture rather than commands from Scripture.
