Christmas is often associated with pagan traditions due to its celebration on December 25th, which was the date of the ancient Roman festival of Saturnalia. This pagan festival was a celebration of the winter solstice and the rebirth of the sun. The Christian church later adopted this date to celebrate the birth of Jesus, incorporating many of the pagan traditions into the Christmas celebrations.
