Christmas

Christmas is the celebration of th birth of Christ. Since no one knew of the Philippines before Magellan discovered it and thus Christianity could not have reached the Philippines before then. Consequently Christmas would not have been celebrated in the Philippines until after Magellan had been there first. Your reasoning is a total fabrication. It is impossible.
