minus-squareNot_mikey@slrpnk.netlinkfedilinkarrow-up12·6 hours agoThat analogy seems a better fit for a lot of Jewish holidays then Christmas. Passover is about the mass death of innocent Egyptian children. Chanukah is about a revolt against Greek rule where: The Maccabees destroyed Greek altars in the villages, forcibly circumcised boys, burnt villages, and drove Hellenized Jews off their land. Christmas is just about some baby being born ( on probably a different day)
