Everyone knows Christmas even if you are of a different religion. But we think that you should know more about this extravagant holiday. We think that first you should know when Christmas originated. Christmas takes place in winter because "Most cattle were slaughtered so they would not have to be fed over the winter*This is probably because they would need too much food and people tend to struggle a bit more with food during the winter. Now the part most people know is about how Christmas is about the birth of Jesus. But did you know that Jesus was probably born in October? As pre established before it only takes place in December because of the reasons stated pre aptly. In conclusion Christmas only comes once a year; so if you celebrate it then you should enjoy it.
