Christ is Resurrected and we should all go to Church and thank GOD for his great love and sacrifice.
Christ has nothing to do with this holiday, this holiday was stolen from the Gentiles and for many thousands of years they deceived people.
I don't know about other regions but here, christianity has taken a lot of pagan rituals and promoted it as its own. Like for example in the ancient slavic mythology, boys used to jump over the bonfire as a test of bravery and faith, now we have the same thing for christmas eve.
It's known for christianity to take pagan rituals to draw more people to christianity once it started spreading across Europe.
Yes, people were forcibly forced to believe in Christianity and stole pagan holidays for their religion. Could come up with their holidays, and not engage in plagiarism. Despite this and now you can meet pagans who follow the traditions of their ancestors.
