Sol Invictus was just a reformation of a more ancient form of sun worship, though, with perhaps some influence from the cult of Elagabalus.

All this is besides the point in that you're operating on an overly narrow and literal version of Christmas history. By your rigid standards for what constitutes "Christmas," I could argue the holiday didn't technically start until the 1930s when Coca-Cola invented the modern version of Santa. It's a ridiculous, stupid argument, sure, but so is pretending that Christmas was invented out of whole cloth with no basis in pre-existing winter festivals.

I'm talking about Christmas as a celebration of the birth of Christ. Where are you getting that I'm talking specifically about modern Christmas??

Actually I outright said that some Christmas traditions are taken from Pagan ones, if you read. But that Christmas was 'originally a Pagan celebration' is patently false.
