Am I the only one who thinks Christmas and Easter need to be swapped, at least in the northern hemisphere?

Obviously the birth of Christ should be in Springtime, along with everything else being born, and includes a tradition of gift giving (from the magi).

And the death and resurrection directly parallels the "death" of the sun on the solstice and it's resurrection when the days start getting longer, which is noticeable by the 25th.

That said, the solstice festival is absolutely necessary to maintain sanity during winters north of the 50th parallel, and it's my favourite holiday.

The solistice is meant to represent the origin of a new year, in the same way that a "new moon" is actually its darkest phase.

No but Easter should get more attention from Christians as arguably it's more important than Christmas.
