MODERATORS
I’ll do you one better: Why is Easter a fertility celebration? None of the accounts of Jesus’ resurrection directly tie it to fertility. These became popular as Christians became exposed to cultures that had spring fertility festivals.
The religious celebration of Christmas includes Advent wreaths, church services, and traditionalist music (Joy to the World, Silent Night, etc.) Everything else is the secular celebration.
