During the Reformation, many Christians began to consider Christmas a pagan celebration because it included nonreligious customs.
In 1659, because of these feelings, Christmas was outlawed in England, and in parts of the English colonies, such as in Massachusetts.
In 1681, the law was repealed, and during this same period of time, some colonies added Thanksgiving Day to the fall calendar as a harvest feast. Several colonies would also celebrate May Day as a spring festival.
