Do you believe that Jesus was born on December 25th?

A well known stigmatist has confirmed this, Jesus was born on September 5th.

She (Myrna Nazzour) has vicariously felt Mary's pains while giving birth to Jesus Christ.

Take it for what it's worth

I'd sooner ask my lucky 8 ball than a stigmatist. At least my lucky 8 ball isn't trying to lie to me for attention.

Do you believe that Jesus was born on December 25th or that the church chose to celebrate Christ's birth day during the Yule celebration and Winter Solstice to appease Early Pagans who were going to burn logs and exchange gifts and bring trees into the house anyway?

The second one...

I celebrate Christmas and I am a Christian, but Christmas is not at all a religious holiday for me. It is just a few weeks off from school, family time, and some awesome presents (I'm hoping for a new cell phone this year). I celebrate Jesus everyday, and don't need one day out of the year designated to do so.

That's an admirable quote.

Why thank you.

You haven't watched the documentary "The Road to Damascus," which thoroughly explains Myrna Nazzou's purpose in this life.

You need to watch it, it's very moving.

I've been intrigued by the possibility that there was a connection between two great religions in the birth of Christ:

The Infancy Gospel of CHrist has the following text:

CHAPTER III

And it came to pass, when the Lord Jesus was born at Bethlehem, a city of Judea in the time of Herod the King; the wise men came from the East to Jerusalem, according to the prophecy of Zoradascht(Zoroaster), and brought with them offerings: namely, gold, frankincense, and myrrh, and worshipped him, and offered to him their gifts.

The first Gospel of the INFANCY of JESUS CHRIST-all

It would to me be signifcant that Zoroaster prophecied the coming of Jesus.

There is a view that the maji were trained in part by Daniel and the prophecy was given to them from the Old Testament (Zechariah I believe).
