A bit late, but...

... I found this one today by random chance, and found it to be too cute as if I would wait until next year.

That was most excellent! A reminder of what the true meaning of Christmas is!
Thanks for that Skybird!

Wut! Skybid you okay?

To anyone that cares...

Quote:
JC wasn't born on the 25 Dec, Christmas is actually a pagan celebration, Christians took it up cause of the date nearing the end of the year. Christ was actually born in the autumn period which wasn't winter as in December.

''First, we know that shepherds were in the fields watching their flocks at night at the time of Jesus' birth (Luke 2:7-8). However, shepherds did not remain in the fields of Judea at night during December due to lack of forage and the bad weather.''

Second, Jesus' parents came to Bethlehem to register in a Roman census (Luke 2:1-4). The Romans would have known better than to have taken such a census in the dead of winter, when temperatures often dropped below freezing and roads were in poor condition for traveling. Taking a census under such conditions would have been self-defeating.

So if Jesus Christ was not born on Dec. 25, does the Bible indicate when He was born? The biblical accounts point to the autumn of the year (in the northern hemisphere) as the most likely time of Jesus' birth, based on details of the conception and birth of John the Baptist.
