Growing up, I was told in Christian school that he wasn’t actually born at that time of year. They said that Christianity “transformed” the pagan festivals and replaced them with church-centric holidays.

Correct me if I'm mistaken, but from what I understand about Christianity is that they allowed people to continue their own traditions and celebrations but just with a new twist. So it wasn't like people had to abandon their previous belief system. That's why Christians today celebrate the pagan holidays of Christmas and Easter.
