THE HISTORY OF THE PROTESTANT AND ʝʊdɛօ-MASONIC ASSAULT AGAINST CHRISTMAS!
The Protestant and ʝʊdɛօ-Masonic assault upon Christmas continues on to this very day. After Martin Luther changed the understanding of November and holy days in general; World War II changed the understanding of Advent and Christmas. As war swept the world, buying habits had to change. Because it took six weeks to transport anything by ship over the ocean, Americans were told to buy their Christmas gifts for their sons overseas by Thanksgiving, or their sons would not receive those gifts by February 2.
The Christmas buying season had been December 25th through February 2nd, with the most intense gift-giving happening during the twelve days of Christmas. But during war, it extended from Thanksgiving to February 2nd. American Protestants who before the 1960's generally owned most American businesses, including retail, thoroughly enjoyed generating a little extra income through marketable sales. The war against the Germans ended in 1945, but the war against Christmas was just reviving into high gear.
Ever since World War II, Protestant businessmen have been strenuously trying to destroy the whole concept of Advent. Pre-Vatican II practicing Catholics were properly catechized during that era in practicing intense fasting, prayer and penance, which prevented them from indulging in shopping. This act was considered unacceptable in the minds of Luther's minions, the Protestant retail owners. Not only was this pre-Vatican II Catholic practice deemed unacceptable, it was bad for business. Since the Protestants do not believe that baptism in the Catholic Church is the only pathway to salvation, nor do they ascribe to our penitential practices, they instead encouraged a mass of people to consume their time in directing attention in whipping out their credit cards and invest in the contemporary art of gift of giving". Their income, of course!
Sixty-five years of advertising broke two millenia of Traditional Catholic practices. America adamantly refused to contemplate death, so "All Holy Eve", "All Saint's Day/All Soul's Day had to be destroyed. Protestant Businessmen knew just how to do that. They disassociated the days from our Traditional contemplation of the saint's joy in heaven and turned them into a pagan party festival. In the minds of Protestants, contemplating saints is dangerous. After all, "they don't own credit cards,' Protestant businessmen could not afford to engage Catholics in their "strange practices."
So now, Halloween has now become the closest thing we have towards the Advent season. Advent has now been transformed into a four-week long "Holiday season" of endless shopping! The season in which we as Traditional Catholics are generally suppose to prepare in celebrating for the birth our divine Savior has been transformed into a month-long celebration of investing in "door-busting" sales, attending office, "Holiday parties", viewing silly, comedy oriented and pagan inspired "Christmas movies" and singing favorite Holiday Jingles such as "Jingle Bells", "Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer" and "Santa Claus Is Coming, To Town!"
By the 1990's, an even more devastating assault against Christmas began emerging. By far more nefarious than the one launched by the Protestants. This time, it was the Jєωs who began to utilize their influence through a number of industries in trying to de-Christianize the true meaning of Christmas by launching an all out, well-funded, "war against CHRIST-mas campaign! While the Protestants continued to insist on retaining the word "Christmas" even though they had already drained every scrap of Traditional Catholic belief and practice from the holy word "CHRISTMAS", it is their Jєωιѕн cohorts who are successfully trying to eliminate our holy feast day with their on-going propaganda of feigning, fake, public outrage against CHRISTMAS. As they mobilize with the aid of their ʝʊdɛօ-Masonic brethren through the ACLU in filing multi-million dollar lawsuits against anyone, who dares to publicize our Traditional Catholic Christian practices in public. Lest we "offend their sensitivities" with the presence of CHRIST!

THE HISTORY OF THE PROTESTANT AND ʝʊdɛօ-MASONIC ASSAULT AGAINST CHRISTMAS!

Britannia got off to an auspiciously early start: Waaay back on Christmas Day in A.D. 597, "more than ten thousand persons were baptized" into Roman Christianity from among the "Saxons of Middlesex and of Essex, together with the men of East Anglia and of Mercia" who acknowledged the rule of "Aethelberht, King of Kent".

•    Aethelberht had previously been baptized by Abbot Augustine.  Both events were milestones for the future St. Augustine of Canterbury and the 40 Italian Benedictines he'd led there as abbot on the mission to England that'd been been personally assigned--and reconfirmed only 1½ years earlier--by Pope St. Gregory I.  At that time, the only conflict was with Celtic Christians, especially in Wales, who'd been converted back when the whole island was Celtic, in the 2nd & 3rd centuries, and all but the northern portion of the island was ironically Roman as a part of the Empire.
  
  Alas, in 1644, during the English cινιℓ ωαrs, an Act of Parliament banned observance of Christmas.  They made it legally a market day, legally requiring shops to be open for business.  And made it a day of fasting instead of celebration.  Such was the religious meddling of the Puritans (also known as "Dissenters", named for their dissent from established Anglicanism) who then controlled it.  Even after the (royal) Restoration (Kings Charles II: 1660--1685, then James II: 1685--1688), the Puritans called the season "Fooltide" instead of "Yuletide".
•  

That religious meddling crossed the Pond to the Puritan-intensive Massachusetts Bay Colony, which in 1659 outlawed the Christmas holiday, which it regarded as "papist.  They made it illegal to observe Christmas, whether by active celebration, or by passive refusal to perform labor.[**]   It would doubtless warm the hearts of schoolchildren across the U.S.A., to learn what a beacon of religious freedom was provided by the future native land of famous patriots John & Sam Adams.  Except that it'd be rare indeed for the predominately Yankee historians for that time & locale to admit to such an injustice.
