    Well most of Christmas as we know it comes from Yule, the Nordic winter solstice celebration

      Can we follow that logic to assume they had Who vikings, going around Whourope Seussically pillaging Whonasteries and Whollages and whimsically blood eagling Who peasants?

    OK if your’e going to come in here talking about how Christmas predates Christ, that’s fine and you’re right, but you’re also required to post your version of the execution of Jesus.

    Anyway I’m picturing some kind of catapult that flings him onto spikes.
