The root of Christmas and new year is it Pagans?

MOST people carelessly assume that celebrating New Year's Eve and christmas is a Christian custom.

Note that the early christian didnt celebrate christmas until A.D 440

 
But from where comes really these practicesof what is the root of it?
Christmas is presumed to be the date of birth of prophete jesus by the Christians.
1.We must first understand the root of Birthday Celebration.
Did the Christian celebrate birthdays back at the time of jesus?-No-
Perhaps the jews did celebrate Birthdays?-No they havent-
And Muslims? -No never-
But what is the origin of it then?!!
 
Well the root is from Pagan practise of Astrology! (Crazy, no?)
 
Did jesus born in december?
There is no evidence of when he born,also just by looking back in palestine during that period it would be cold, But how could then the shepherds on the fields (Luke 2:8-12)
 There are more evidence like this...
What about santa claus, or should I say pagan god ODIN.
Odin a old tall old men , with long white beard, wearing red coat(sounds familiar no?)
Little children would stuff their boots full of carrots, straw and sugar for Odin's flying horse to eat and set them near the chimney at night(that soundss familiar too no??)
Then we have the romans between December 17 and 24 the pagan Saturnalia were celebrated.
There is much more evidence..
 
And we know the real saint nicholas, a TINYbishop men, fasting often, loving kids.
 
So from where is Christams comming?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
 
Debate debate!!!
 
Have a Merry ODIN,   Bless ODIN, GOD OF PAGAN

Druids brought evergreens into the temple on midwinter to celebrate the plants' perseverance through winter oslt.

The original yule log was a proper wooden log that was burned.

There is nothing christian about it. Completely Pagan in every way. Stolen by a pope in order to convert more Pagans to christianity.
