Why would Hogwarts and wizard people celebrate Christmas anyway? Are they catholic? Shouldn't they be agnostic or more appropriately have their own religion?

King Arthur was Christian, so it stands to reason that his advisor Merlin, king of all wizards, was Christian too
yep, Jesus was a wizard, and the hebrews hated him for it
you already know why. Threads closed.
probably rowling has already retconned christmas existing and made some more people black/gay
You forgot his parents lived in a wizard village that had a church? There's even a bible quote in their tombstone, which is located in the churchyard
>There's even a bible quote in their tombstone
what quote
santa claus is clearly a wizard
Wouldn't the irrefutable existence of ghosts, spirits, the afterlife, and supernatural forces dependent upon consciousness and intention make being an atheist or agnostic in the wizarding world quite literally insane?
For an atheist probably yes, not for an agnostic though. What meaning should even have the figure of Jesus Christ in the wizard world? Christianity only makes sense in the muggle world.

Can't disagree with that, but only if you are talking about the characters themselves.
disgusting shitskin pedo
Because the miracles of jesus weren't magic tricks but feats of divine power. Magic is just some force of nature only wizards can tap into if you look at it that way.
tl;dr magic is not supernatural
>magic is not supernatural
Explain spells like expecto patronum, imperio, avada kedavra etc. then
The rivers of London novels are a good modern day exploration of exactly this theme
Magic is evil in the Bible, cf. Simon Magus in Acts.
No, one could think that stuff exists without concluding that it is worthy of worship and submission to, that it created the universe and is all knowing, all powerful, everywhere at once, etc. To a wizard magic would be mundane, like electricity or the internet to us.
J.K. Rowling is a Christian and J.K. Rowling famously said that if you are familiar with the scriptures that you can easily guess the ending of her book
Yeah the story of Harry Potter is literally just the Christ myth retold for modern day but with a Nazi insurrection instead of a Roman tyranny.
It's yule they celebrate. trees, gift giving, plant themed decorations, big festive meals, all of it is pagan in origin but consumed by christianity. death to abrahamism
Yule isn't a real holiday germantard
ok rabbi chaim kleinstein

Because Christ is king even over the followers of satan.
Well they have the yule ball in goblet of fire, yule is the pre christian name of Christmas. I think wizards (and most people) just want to party and have fun in the winter.

Christmas at Hogwarts looks very comfy bros
Jesus was a wizard. The Talmud records multiple records of him performing demonic magic and then passing it off as a miracle.
