The Start of the Descent into Winter.
All Hallows Eve. I still have yet to find refutable proof that Halloween is not the only holiday left that has not been perverted by Christians. I know, I know, such a horrible thing to say, but seriously think about it alittle bit.
Every major holiday, around the world, that’s celebrated in multiple countries, normally has a religious influence. Admittedly my range of holidays is mainly in the US, but I know that Christmas is celebrated all over. I always find it funny to think that it was once Yule, a celebration of pretty much being half way through winter, and getting closer to being out of the darkness and cold. In most places, long before Christ, it was a time for family to come together and share what they had, especially warmth.
