>Christ points to little children as the model to which the members of his kingdom must assimilate themselves. The special attributes of children which he would recommend are humility, unworldliness, simplicity, teachableness, - the direct contraries of self-seeking, worldliness, distrust, conceit.

>That is, he shall be the most distinguished Christian who is the most humble, and who is willing to be esteemed least and last of all.

The son (sun) has died and went into the tomb, but show no fear! In three days (months) he will be arisen on Easter just in time for spring! (March 27)

Better dance around that maypole like a good Christian! I hope you celebrated Halloween too!

The pre-Christian celebrations of the renewal of creation in the Spring find their completion in the Resurrection, the passage from death to life of the incarnate Son of God, and with him all creation.

and anyway there were pagan celebrations and feasts in every season, no matter when a celebration falls you can link it to some pre-christian event. not that surprising.
