Really though many parts of Christanity was changed during the council of Tripoli(I think this is the name of it), when the Romans adapted Christanity, many things about the religion were changed, Christmas for example is just a renaming of a holiday the Romans had already celebrating Apolo making the transition easier for Romans, thus that is why Christmas is not on Jesus brith (sometime in Spring I think, it is mentioned in the bible somewhere).<hr size="1" /></blockquote><span class='postcolor'>
And the date of Christmas was set on the birthdate of Mithra...a pagan god or something.
