For the customs of the people [are] vain: for [one] cutteth a tree out of the forest, the work of the hands of the workman, with the axe. They deck it with silver and with gold; they fasten it with nails and with hammers, that it move not. They [are] upright as the palm tree, but speak not: they must needs be borne, because they cannot go. Be not afraid of them; for they cannot do evil, neither also [is it] in them to do good. (Jeremiah 10:4vv)

What is the child of which the birth is celebrated during that ancient Babylonian Pagan festival? According to the Bible, Paganism is -in essence- the worship of creation rather than the worship of the Creator. And so, the child which is born can be found in creation: it's the sun. The sun, of which the first day of the week is named after, too.

How then, can the birth of the sun god, celebrated on the shortest day of the year, become an alleged Christian festival? How can the "birth of Christ" be celebrated on a day wherein he was never born? The answer to that question can be found in that very same 4th century. That century in which Christianity was "legalized" by the Roman Emperor Constantine, himself an adherant of Mithraism or the worship of the sun god. Christianity, or what was called by that name, became the state religion and the so-called Christian civilization was born. But Constantine's "Christianity" was quite different then the simple message of salvation as proclaimed by Jesus Christ and the 12 apostles.

Pagan festivals and concepts were "transformed" by the ever growing "Church of Rome". Images of idols, for example. Pictured left is an alleged statue of Peter the Apostle. It can be found in the Vatikan. "The Apostle Peter" with the sun disk around his head, that is. The statue itself was made by a Pagan who wanted to make a statue for his god Jupiter. But the so-called Christian church simply gave that statue the name of one of the 12 apostles. And there you have in a nutshell the way in which "Christianity" became the dominant "religion" in Pagan Europe.

In 2005, the true Pagan nature of such festivals as the "Christ Mass" become more and more clear. "Christian" President of the USA, George W. Bush, sent out a "Season Greetings Chard" to his closest 1.4 million friends without mentioning the words "Christ Mass", which enraged quite a large number of self professed Christians as they saw in it some kind of Paganization of the USA, which is considered by many to be built as a Christian Nation.

When the above was reported, a Dubroom visitor wrote how amazing it was, that people would only realize how unchristian George W. Bush is, in cases such as this one. Not one single second did it come to these people's minds, how the mass murder and slaughter, the New World Order, would be a rather more obvious sign of the very same fact: the west is not a Christian Civilization, it is Babylon as described in the Bible. Politcally, Religiously, Culturally.

Until today, it's one of the biggest mysteries: how can people who are truly Christian believe that the western civilization is a "(Judeo) Christian" one? How can they believe that it's a form of Paganization to not name the celebration of the birth of the sun god "Christ Mass"? The origin of the "Christ Mass" is in that very same Paganism! That "Christ Mass Tree" is even described in the book of Jeremiah in the Old Testament!

Calling the statue of an idol by the name of one of the 12 apostles doesn't make that statue Christian. But nevertheless, this concept of "adopting and giving it a Christian name" has been used ever since. In the USA, there are whole "Bible Universities" where you can learn to do this as a "way of evangelizing". It's called "sanctification"... In fact, the whole alleged Christian Identity of "western civilization" is built on it. And the festival of the "Christ Mass" makes this clear once again. Something which is (considered to be) anti-christian, is adopted nevertheless and given some kind of Christian vibe. People worshipped the statue of Jupiter, so they kept on worshipping the statue of Peter, thinking they had now found a "sanctified" way of doing exactly that which made them Pagans in the first place.

In the Gospel according to John, we can learn about true Christianity. In the third chapter, the Divine Saviour Yesus Kristos (Jesus Christ) explains how becomming a Christian requires something called "born again". A complete transformation, a new life, and in this context the bible teaches us that: "all things are made new, and the old has passed away". Simply calling the old by a new name, doesn't make that transformation.

Yesus Kristos also explained why He came. He came to fullfill the Old Testament law. He came to do what was required according to that law in order to be considered righteous. He is God Himself, Jah Rastafari, and He came to live the life that you and I should live: a sinless life. Then He died the death that you and I should die, according to that very same law. And by doing so, He became our Substitute. When we accept what He did, when we simply believe this, Yesus Kristos Himself makes us new born creations.

How different is that simple Gospel of Yesus Kristos with the complicated and mixed-up nature of the alleged Judeo Christian Civilization with it's "Christ Mass Festival" and it's New World Order of death and destruction as foretold in the Book of Revelation.

But when we take a look at Jah's description of the "Christ Mass Tree" as quoted from Jeremiah 10 in the start of this article, we see that He does have a message about the tree and the system it represents: "Don't be afraid for them, and don't expect any good to be in it".
