It is their Mary and their Jesus. They can do what they want. Tomorrow is Holy in the Roman Catholic church- a commemoration of their Jesus being circumcised (8 days from their December 25)
It doubles as a ‘holiday’ in the secular world, not by accident.

They are well within their rights to do as they please.
The world follows a calendar named after a Pope for goodness sake..
They get to call the shots.

Thankfully, Scripture and Creation tells us december 25 is a lie, so January 1st is a lie and not Holy, except to Rome and the world

But that doesn’t just mess up Rome. But it explains a lot..

Good grief....no they aren't lies, they are dates that people chose to honor an event....the chance of Jesus being born on what we now know as Dec. 25 is pretty remote....who cares, we are celebrating His birth. The Gregorian calendar has been accepted worldwide because it works. I,m pretty sure that God doesn't care if get the date wrong as long as we acknowledge the event. We celebrate the Assumption of Mary into Heaven on August 15th....does that mean she was assumed on that date....nope, just acknowledging an event that happened.
