I recently fell down the pagan holiday rabbit hole and now I feel like I should no longer celebrate Christmas or Easter…

Problem is I’m not Jewish and my husband thinks Passover is nothing more than Jewish Independence Day so he A) is not convinced we should celebrate it B) thinks it’s gonna be a hard transition and C) it’s gonna cause problem with his side of our family (non-denom Christian).

Are there any #Nostriches who’ve gone down this rabbit hole? Celebrate Passover instead of Christmas? Or have any advice period?

Would love some assistance thinking this through 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

Share the history with your kids and see what they think

Don’t have any yet… I’m trying to start family traditions now so that when they’re born they are born into the tradition. That when they get older and question for themselves they will have a strong foundation to fall back on.

That makes sense. I have some friends who celebrate the winter solstice during Christmas and that seems to work. I think once you start having kids holidays are just fun to celebrate with them more than anything. Whatever helps you feel happy will work.
