    The ancient Roman culture celebrated Saturnalia every year for centuries.

    This tradition of paying tribute to Saturn/Cronos/El has become Christmas.

    By celebrating christmas you are worshiping Saturn.

    And the "birth" of his Son... (Je)Zeus.

    Actually, we are celebrating a political compromise. Constantine made Christianity legal and gave it an important position in the Roman Empire, but the church had to make some concessions in exchange. Two of them included moving their holy day of the week from Saturday to Sunday, and moving the celebration of Christmas from January 6 back twelve days to December 25.
