NamKangMan Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 Maybe the OP can ask for his post to be deleted before he embarrasses himself even more? Maybe locked, now he has his answer, but why deleted? There may be several members on this forum that are unaware that many Russians celebrate Christmas on the 7th January, as opposed to the 25th December. Why not leave the thread for their information? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somtamnication Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 Also Catholics celebrate it on the 7th. Latin Americans celebrate Dia de los Reyes Magos on that day (Day of the 3 wise kings). Not being pedantic, but yes, magos is magician, not wise, but there you go..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seligne2 Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 Orthodox Christians celebrate Christmas Day on or near January 7 in the Gregorian calendar. This date works to be December 25 in the Julian calendar, which pre-dates the Gregorian calendar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
