Oh, and your yearly tidbit of religious info that you never cared to know:

Most likely (according to historians), Jesus was born during the Feast of Tabernacles (Succot), not during/on Christmas. However, Succot generally falls in the fall, which puts it towards the end of September. Ok so far?

Now, what was miraculous about His coming into the world? It wasn't His birth - that was a completely natural human birth.

It was his conception.

Which would have been 9 months before Succot, leaving us with.... Dec. 25th? :D


Merrey Christmas, Happy Channukah, and Happy holidays to one and all! :)

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

Actually the date of his birth was set to override pagan Solstice holidays, not because he was actually born on that day.

The obligatory kitten reference!  Yay! :lol:

Those that don't celebrate Jesus's birth can still celebrate Santa Claus day - as 01010 said, the commercialization of Christmas. :rolleyes: :lol:

Yes, the date of Jesus's birth (Jesus's Birthday - Observed ;)) was arbitrarily set at 12/25 to override existing religious festivals, but Sandwich brings up an interesting point.

By the way, Sandwich, do you celebrate both Christmas and Hannukah? ;7

Christmas is less than a week before new years, when the real partying is.

Actually, we don't celebrate Christmas, although we have plenty of friends who do. It's funny - Israelis absolutely love carolling! :D

And this year, I was in Babylon the Great-err... the US, for half of Channukah, so I didn't get to celebrate it much. Oh well, no harm done - it isn't a Biblical holiday, after all. :)
