Page 7: Merry Christmas!. Christmas is Banned! Christmas is Banned Im Oliver Cromwell, and Im in charge now! Christmas is a SIN!

Who were the Puritans?

• The Puritans were a very strict (extreme) type of Protestants who were around in the Sixteenth and Seventeenth Centuries.

• They believed that the Church had become corrupt and sinful.

• They wanted to purify religion by using the Bible as the word of law on earth.

But why ban Christmas?

• Christmas was a human invention, not in the Bible.

• It was too closely linked to old Pagan (Pre-Christian) beliefs

• The idea of a ‘mass’ for Christ just smelled of Catholicism!

So it was banned in England in 1647!
