圣诞节的来历(中英文版)
Christmas is a Christian holiday that celebrates the birth of Jesus Christ. No one knows the exact date of Christ#39;s birth, but most Christians observe Christmas on December 25.

The Persians and the Babylonians celebrated a similar festival called the Sacaea. Part of that celebration included the exchanging of places, the slaves would become the masters and the masters were to obey. The ancient Greeks held a festival similar to that of the Zagmuk/Sacaea festivals to assist their god Kronos who would battle the god Zeus and his Titans.
The Roman#39;s celebrated their god Saturn. Their festival was called Saturnalia which began the middle of December and ended January 1st. With cries of quot;Jo Sat
