Christmas isn't about celebrating the birth of "The Son of God" nor did it originate for that purpose. The Church actually stole the holiday from the Pagans and incorporated their beliefs into it. The only thing they actually did for the holiday was change the name. Had the Church not interfered, Christmas would be pretty much the same as it is today. The Christmas one is wrong.
