Isn't it considered a sin to celebrate the birthday of false gods?

Question

“Christmas, as thinking people know, is not the birthday of Christ. He was not born in the middle of Winter, we know that for sure because the sheep were out in the fields. It would have been very cold at night in the hills of Judea and it has always been the practice of shepherds in that area, not to keep sheep in the fields after about the end of October. It is also extremely unlikely that Herod would have ordered people to travel to their home towns for registrati­on in the middle of Winter. 
Christ was more likely born at the festival of Succot (Tabernacl­es), and probably would not have celebrated his own birthday because it wasn't a Jewish custom to do so. 

Christians are not celebratin­g the birthday of the real Jesus of Nazareth at all, but the birthday of Nimrod, Osiris, Jupiter, and all the other re-incarna­tions of the child-god of the Babylonian religious system. 
Read Genesis 10:8-10. 
The Bible does not identify Nimrod's date of birth, but Egyptian and Babylonian antiquitie­s identify that Nimrods birthday was celebrated on 25th December. 

So my question, isn't it a sin to celebrate the birthday of a false god?

Actually, according to the early Christian church, only pagans celebrated the births of their gods any way.  Every other "saint's mass" is a celebration of their death/martyrdom.

The seasons are different worldwide, and have altered over time, so using our information, people cannot judge the true time of Jesus, the Son of God's birth, or any ancient time, but a celebration is a celebration, and traditionally December 25 is when we celebrate it. God knows why we do what we do when we do it, and a culture-wide celebration of the birth of our savior is always right.

I agree with Gandalf. The origin of Christmas comes from old religions. In many cultures there were festivals held to celebrate winter solstice.

Dunno, but every day of the week is named after the Norse gods.
