Debatable that most Christmas traditions were originally pagan?
When I grew up in the Catholic Church, it was explained specifically 
to me that Catholics were trying to suppress pagan religion and were 
deliberately adopting some of the imagery....

What do you think ISN'T pagan about Christmas? The birth of the son 
of god? The tree? The Yule log?
