Merry Christmas from Germany Just a reminder, Christmas is celebrated differently in Germany than in the USA. We don't say Christmas either. In Germany we say the consecrated night "Weihnacht". This is an old custom and refers to the winter solstice. When the days get longer again and life awakens. Christianity could not destroy that. So in Germany we still have our Christmas in a pagan style. Even the Christmas tree has nothing to do with Christianity. It is pagan, and that is good. Because those are our roots. The problem is that most people don't know it. Anyway, I wish you all a blessed Christmas.
