Christmas is not the day where Jesus was born.
It might be the "day where we celebrate the birth of Christ", but then this is a play on words.
Feel free to check your bibles to find out why. Or you can ask me.
Hee.
Oh, another bombshell to some, Sabbath is not on Sunday.
I blame the Romans.

"and he was born on the twenty-fifth of the twelfth, the holiest of holies"
------Isaiah 23:64-65
Have you been reading the bible?
Luke 2:8
i say that it doesn't matter what the bible say. at least not the one that most people this part of the world reads.
why?
because it is in English, translated from Latin, which was translated from whatever language (Hebrew? Aramic?) Jesus and his disciples spoke. things would have been gained and lost in the process of translation.
also the King James version (which the modern bible for the Protestants are based on) took bits and pieces out from the official on endorsed by the Vatican and added bits in.
furthermore, the bible as we know it is based on what the Holy Roman Catholic Church wanted us to know, based on the various mega pow-wows that they had (e.g. Council of Nicaea, etc).
lastly, Jesus never wrote a sinlge word. he was illiterate. so what we have are what people wrote later. so how can anyone be certain that the Bible, as we know it is, an accurate record of what Jesus said and/or did?
one question though. does the twelfth month that Isaiah refers to necessarily December? considering that December is a month in the Georgian calendar which was only conceived of centuries after Jesus' birth and his disciples' passing. so even if it is indeed the twenty-fifth of the twelfth month, it need not necessarily be the 25th of December as we know it. but the twenty-fifth of the 12th month of whatever calendar the Hebrews used. in which case, it is most likely to be not the 25th of December (just like how because of the difference in lunar and Georgian calendars, the first of the first month in either rarely, if ever, coincide).
Why is ayone even reading the bible?
Isaiah 23:64-54 is just something I pulled out of my ass. There is no such quote on the specific day that Jesus was born.
But it is absolutely correct it doesn't matter what the bible says. So what if the day itself is wrong. I think greater burden of proof lies in whether the babe called jesus is really God.
How would anyone proof/disprove that?
Show your face Anon! haha...
We read the bible cos its the most popular book in the world. Haha.
i think the fact that i did not know that Isaiah 23:64-65 is something that Anon pulled out of his/her ass shows that i don't read the bible.
i know why Brandon reads the bible though. because he believes what Sun Tzu says:
know thyself, know thy enemy, hundred battles, hundred victories.
and Anon, i have my own ideas about the whole story of Jesus, but is too irreverent for me to post online. ask me privately if you want to know.
Oi. Don't speak for me leh. Haha.
Believers have to stop defending their faith based on historical facts.
Excellent article on slate about christianity and how facts do not corroborate.

It is the most intensely dry, terrible book, this bible. It has not much in the ways of instruction, nor does it have literary value. I say most of the world has no taste.
