Do you believe that Christ was really born on Dec. 25?

Hi, arkin. I have been believing this story all of my life. I wonder sometimes, if Christ was really born on December 25. There is no mention of this date anywhere in the Bible. There are clues leading up to this date. But, I don't think that anyone can be so accurate. I would like to know if this is true too.

No one knows when christ was born. I christmas is just another man made hoilday to get people to spend money.

The Church of Rome chose December 25 to counteract the pagan celebration of Saturnalia a Roman celebration dealing with the winter solstice. They thought that it was a way of getting the people to worship Christ instead. Christ more likely was born in the spring since Shepherds were out in the fields with the sheep.

no one knows the exact date. and it sure is not december 25 coz back then, there was no calendar yet. but december 25 is the closest, according to historians.

Well, I don't know anything about that. But... Do you know how many birthdays there are a year? Hundreds. Literally hundreds! Sorry, sorry. Had to get a Master Shake quote in myLot somewhere. There aren't enough of them floating around.

Its a symbolic date you know. No one really knows when Jesus was born.
