Would be awesome if more would start celebrating the winter solstice again instead of Christmas.

It would unite us more and based on science and not on some arbitrary thoughts.

So in the spirit of it: happy winter solstice everyone! (I know I'm 2 days late)

I personally advocate for Thanksgiving to all of my ex-us friends.

That said, I think any effort to coerce the global community into some shared holiday would be much more divisive than unifying.

that was tried in the New Age movement of the 1980s, which got some people going, an American interest in Yoga, some derision but mostly jeers and yawns. You must know that there are holiday ceremonies all around the world at that time, but they are typically considered "old" or "naive" or uneducated. The world-conquering language groups brought with them non-nature based religions, which purposefully offset as people here discuss.

I'm curious if we as humans would be more deceptive to climate change if we would still have nature based beliefs

The world is increasingly united around Christmas, mostly stripped of its religious connotations.

Celebrate whatever you want and let everyone else enjoy their thing.
