    Another conspiracy theorist. Next you'll be telling me that St George's Day has been deliberately named after St George. Even the "authorities" wouldn't try that one on.

    Except that he wasn't born on Dec 25th (some Eastern European Orthodox churches celebrate it on Jan 6th), it was a convienient date for the Christian church to hijack what was previously a pagan festival.
