Answer:

hi I came back for points...

Step-by-step explanation:

I don't think I like anyone rn

Maybe I might, maybe I don't....I'm not sure...

In 4 B.C. Jesus was born, but his birth wasn't celebrated until A.D. 336. Constantine, the emperor of Rome at the time, had made Christianity the only legal religion. On December 25, there was a pagan holiday that celebrated the winter solstice, so to counteract the pagan religions with Christianity, Constantine declared that December 25 would celebrate Jesus' birth. Many of the traditions of the winter solstice celebration merged with Christmas celebrations.

Merry Christmas!!!
