Nah really, wow I am glad you filled me in on this, no that's right my pastor did that already. But since I am already here, Oneformula, what day was Jesus born on, you have a 1 in 365 chance, 1 in 366 leap year, fill us in on both event dates.

The actual date does not matter. In fact, you can celebrate every day if you want.


What do you mean by "pagan is as pagan does"?

Why so many unlearned "Christians" in this forum?

I have been waiting for the educated to answer this question, but they (he/she) appears to be focused on Paganism?

Memo:

Please, do not confuse any answer with that of a "Christmas" toy, or an "Easter" egg?

What a question ? Unfortunately cannot rep you.

I suppose the answer can be who are you to question God's way?.

His child, who seeks an answer.

BTW- not being able to rep me, is fine.
It is scary, when they go up by the hundreds or thousands.


Unless of course, it is over time.

Can you show that from scripture? I see where it would indicate a fall timeframe based on the timing given about the birth of John and when Mary conceived. You can use the course of service at the temple for Johns father and work it out pretty close. It has been sometime since I looked at all the details but I am sure if you did a search you could find it on the internet.
