The real birth date of Christ may have more significance than originally thought by three groups maybe more. Christian astronomers, theologians ( religious variety pack) , evangelical leaders and messanic.
My mentor Jonathan Cahn and I are at odds in that he believes Jesus was born in Nissan ( representing "new birth" leveraging off lambs born and weather factors), whereas I'm going with a life long study by christian astronomers suggesting an interesting scenario. Jesus was born on September 11 3 BC . The weather is fine in September in Bethlehem and lambs are born in fall also..
Dec 25th was earmarked by the early church daddy's in an effort to dilute Saturnalia and to a degree distract from the witchcraft app. of winter solstice. So they pulled the Jesus birth card . Meanwhile, sometime during Hanukkah Mary while presumably in temple experienced the conception of Jesus via Ruach Ha'Kodesh ( breath, wind of the Holy Spirit). The astronomers noted the sun and moon was centered on the upside of Venus 4 BC . Nine months later takes us to September 11 possibly at 9am. according to one author. It was noted that the alignment of the sun and moon was at the base of Venus (birth)
Saturalia was a pagan feast nearly similar to our secular activities of Christmas ( gift exchange, booze etc) except they are not worshipping the sun God . Spiritualists then jump on Winter Solstice for their thing.
Imagine I attempted to clarify that Thanksgiving isn't the birth of Christ a response from on the street
Interview on TV. Thanksgiving has it's origins with the colonialists when they celebrated the new world with a variety of trappers, pilgrims and native American Indians. That I rely on the History Channel for it's history and what I was taught in school. Thought the student response was hilarious.
In America Thanksgiving came from George Washington and then officially by Abraham Lincoln who both gave thanks to Almighty God for the trying time America went through , as some of the statements are from Washington .....``Where it is the duty of all Nations to Acknowledge the providence of Almighty God , to obey his will , to be grateful for his benefits , and humbly to implore his protection and favor .................. and the statement of Lincoln ....``A day of thanksgiving and Praise to our beneficent Father who dwelleth in the Heavens ....and I recommend to that while offering up the ascriptions justly due for singular deliverance and blessing ``.............See both these Presidents went through a major war and ask Thanksgiving to God for His provision ......... So thanks to the Lord ...

I believe the USofA would be a much better country if it had never heard of the evil deity!

Celebrates the genocide carried out against the Original Nations by the caring, loving and god-in-the-box fearing "pilgrims.."
JOhn Oliver has the perfect definition of THANKSGIVING--
He said, "There was only one time in American history when the fear of refugees wiping everyone out did actually come true, and we’ll all be sitting around a table celebrating it on Thursday.”
