an even that probably never happened. This myth has been told and re-told for thousands of years with several different "saviours"....not to mention that the holiday was celebrated in Rome and among the Germanic peoples long before it became Jesus' birthday. If you want to celebrate the birth of your saviour by running up a VISA bill and eating ham, go for it. Just don't force this stupid crap on everyone else....
