Today, my psychotic grandma set fire to our Christmas tree because she refuses to let us celebrate what she calls a twisted pagan holiday. FML

To be perfectly honest, the Christmas tree is actually adopted from Germanic pagan traditions and there is no proof that Jesus was born on December 25th. She has a valid point.

Actually, it is really a Pagen holiday that was twisted to make it a Christian and Pagen holiday. So technically, she is right..

She may be right about the origins of the holiday, but she was certainly not right to endanger your entire family just because she disagrees with your holidays.

The catholic church actually moved Jesus' birthday from sometime in August to December twenty fifth to recrute Pagens. The reason they chose this date is because the Pagens celebrate the winter solstice which is December twenty first.

Grandma needs a 72 hour hold, followed by a 28 day assessment - or whatever the equivalent is in the States.

Never mind that it is essentially a pagan holiday.
