regular show wrote:Its true the christmas tree is made by pagans accept they hung them upside down. My father did lots of research on that, the catholic people made holidays like christmas and halloween to cover up the pagan holiday. But they also took the pagans traditions along with them ^.^



I also have done a lot of research, and that's a myth. I don't care that its a myth, just don't pass off one version of the truth as the only truth. Now this is a random facts form, and since this isn't a fact lets keep it out of this post.

Please read this.

Also why in the world would we have a pine tree in our houses?! It cant be random there had to be a reason for it. And people a while ago called it tree worshiping. The easter bunny and the creepy halloween stuff also originated from Pagan practices.

+ The chetah is the only big cat that can pur. It is also the only cat that has semi-retractable claws (sort of like dog claws meaning they do not retract into their paw).
Sorry for my slow response time on RP's. My new job steals ALL my time. :(

Your posts come off as a little rude, The_Nutcracker_Queen, it's a random facts forum, plenty of them are wrong, this is in fact a family sight, so not everyone knows everything there is to know. OP clearly thought it was a fact, mistakes are allowed to be made, you could be wrong in saying it's just a myth, but no one's telling you to keep your opinions out of the forum. Also, as far as I know, it is true.

(ugh sorry i keep correcting you D: i feel bad now)
Cougars/Mountain Lions/ whatever your native area calls them; they can also purr :3
and i don't know if the semi-retractable is true or not. it sounds awesome but it doesn't make much sense when the cheetah is the fastest land animal. one does not want to retract claws and slip up while running after prey ;3 i will have to do some research on that.

- Cougars are considered to be in the same group as smaller cats. I know they are the biggest cat that can purr. Also they do have semi-attractable paws, it means they can run faster by using their claws to run.
