The TRUE reason for the Season is simply because of the position of the Earth in its orbit around the Sun, nothing more, nothing less, that is my response to the whole Xtian Xmas bull twaddle they starts getting peddled around every year at this time.

not simple as the festival sat ontop of the saxon festivale o yule
@BillLittleford it still relies upon the season due to the position of the Earth in its orbit around the Sun.
@Triphid you may be right its slightly outside my sphere of interest so i don't know more than that
Don't make promises you can't keep about traditions rooted in 10 centuries of pre-history.
