| But it's now just a holiday about this white, bearded fat guy wearing a red suit. Riding in a sleigh. Driven by caribou. And delivering presents to Americans. |

No, the pagan festival that occurred still up to 1840 was at the same time that Christmas was first practiced as a federally recognized Holiday in the U.S. Christmas and the Pagan holiday were two separate festivities. |

it already had Christ in the name. ''Christ''-Mas. Any nonreligious holiday preceding it was probably a separate one. |
