yeah just tell to wait a month and call it a new year bonus.
Actually, I think the New Year celebration has pagan origins too.
Plus, people drink a lot of alcohol and kiss people who they're not married to.

Being serious for just a moment I respect EB and Ricos writings and what they write are true as to the origin of Christmas however there are many pagan things we use everyday...the days of the week, the calendar, and on and on...
Amen, sister. And Paul clearly noted that although meat was offered to false idol gods, we know it is just meat and that there is only one God. Go ahead and eat the meat. The false gods are nothing. So eating meat is just eating meat, whether it is offered to idols or not. Just do not do it in the pagan temples. And Dec 25 is just Dec 25, whether we give gifts or not. We know there is One God. We actually EMPOWER the nothingness of the idol to be something when we rally againts these things.
"Many Christians do not try to understand what was written in a verse in the Bible. Instead they approach the passage to prove what they already believe."

THE SAME PRINCIPLE. Paganalia! It is about how we treat pagan elements.
