Adam Ruins Everything Explains the Pagan Origins of Christmas

In this clip from Adam Ruins Everything, host Adam Conover explains how Christmas traditions have little to do with anything in the Bible. In fact, the traditions we celebrate actually have Pagan origins.

And then, just for kicks, he gives us that history in a Peanuts-style cartoon. Linus would be devastated.

It’s almost like the War on Christmas is being waged… by Christians. (Cue dramatic sound effect.)

The full episode airs tonight on truTV.
