Question by Kylie: Any Kansas City Pagans know of any official Yule/Winter Solstice celebration?
I was thinking of going somewhere to celebrate Yule/Winter Solstice if there was a celebration behind held this year – does anyone know anything? I thought Unity Temple on the Plaza held a Winter Solstice celebration but it appears not? Thanks for your assistance.

[It has been scientifically proven that the latter half of this video will sound better through headphones.] I’ve emphasized the instruments thing in my video, but repairing/stringing old instruments and getting them and a gaggle of musicians to remote communities up north is an expensive venture! Monetary donations sure would be helpful too. To find out more about all that good stuff (and hear some of the kids’ songs, f’realz!) go to www.artscancircle.ca My special guest for this episode has his own YouTube channel: www.youtube.com The song we play under the P4A logo is “The Christians & The Pagans” by Dar Williams. We like her.

Christmas: The celebration of Jesus Or Satan?

Many people in the world celebrate christmas at or around December 25th as being the birth of Jesus Christ. However, how does Santa Claus, the christmas tree and gift giving fit into the celebration of Christmas? What is the true meaning of Christmas that many people celebrate? These answers and more will be exposed in this article.

Regardless of what date many people think of as being the birth of Jesus Christ, it really is not the reason why Christmas is celebrated. Nowhere in the bible will you find the exact date of Jesus birth or any references to it being celebrated because God did not want us to remember his birth and celebrate it but he wanted us to think about his death, resurrection, his future coming and the reason he was sent to earth. Jesus and his apostles never celebrated his birth anywhere in the bible and not even after his death was his birth celebrated by any of his apostles or believers. However, there are clues in the bible as to the approximate date of Jesus’ birth and with a little work it can be calculated. A whole book could be written about all the evil associated with Christmas so this one subject will not be discussed in much detail except to say that Jesus’ birthday is not on December 25th. However, regardless of when people claim Jesus birthday was, Jesus told us to remember him by the eating of the bread which signified his body and drinking the wine which signified his blood. This was to be celebrated as the remembrance of him and not by the celebrating of Christmas on December 25th! The Christmas holiday and the dates that have been chosen to represent Jesus birth is an abomination in God’s eyes and actually have pagan roots. Nobody who can do research can deny this. Therefore, all people
