Thanks, I had a feeling it was heathen, but was not sure, the point about the Holy Fathers From Marketing is a good one.Saturnalia was the Roman winter solstice holiday, celebrated with feasting and gift-giving and general merriment. It was co-opted by the early Church around the fourth century AD and turned into Christmas. An early effort by the Holy Fathers From Marketing, if you will.
