Passive criticism is worthless.  Tell us, Silat, what you do YOU believe in?

Cheers,

Au contraire my young Jedi.
You are the one who hasnt read where the holidays come from.
After you use google or your public library you can then come back here and say "wow I did not know that".

Ill even get you started.

Do you have that at your party?:)
Im finished celebrating the festival of lights. So going to Christians homes that Im invited to seems to be just fine. And they know that Xmas is based on a pagen holiday. Does that shake anyones faith in their God of choice? If it does then your faith must not be very strong.

no, but I'm pretty sure you are a resident of Eugene rather than Portland.  That is, the Peoples Republic of Eugene.

No.  If you never believed, it **MIGHT** not apply.  Belief in the thing doesn't make it exist, or not exist.  It might be there whether or not you choose to believe in it.

Went to the link read it got disgusted at the waste of internet space and left, same thing I do on religious sites, I don't care if theres a God, Satan, Heaven, or Hell. I don't want to broadcast myself on you tube, thats too much like going on Murry. And I don't want their stupid video. the Video store is right down the street and I get enough stupid movies there.

Jesus was executed just after Passover which begins on the 15th day of Nisan (on the Hebrew calendar), which falls between nightfall on March 25 and nightfall on April 24.

The definition of Summer has changed over the years, and was defined at one time to make June 24* midsummer nite, (hence the naming of Shakespeares play) making summer start halway between the spring equinox and the summer solstice. Passover is definately in spring.

The timing of execution is pretty set, the timing of birth is unknown.

December 25th was chosen to coincide with the festival of Saturn.


*Not sure why it isn't the 21st...
