“Christmas,” the birth of Tammuz, has nothing to do with my Lord, Jesus Christ.

Rosh Hashanna, the ancient feast prophesying the birth of Christ, is the Biblical celebration of his birth; why would a Christian want to replace that with the birthdate of a pagan false god? (invented by a false ‘church’)

Editor-surveyor: “Christmas,” the birth of Tammuz,

Blah, blah. Tammuz, the Sumerian deity was forgotten before the Neo-Babylonian empire collapsed. And the feast was

1. celebrated according the old Sumerian calendar which does not gel with ours (you can compare a lunar based with a solar base but the days change each year) and
2. in general a summer feast.

Do read up before shooting false facts all the time

harley: One of the lessons of Christianity is not to be judgmental.

true, hence one ignore's a remark like in the post by Editor-surveyor: “Christmas,” the birth of Tammuz,

Forget about it I guess

Merry Christmas all! Hallelujah!

Remember that Rosh Hashanna is part of the “old covenant”. The birth of Jesus is celibrated as the birth of the “new covenant”.
