The True Meaning of The 25th Of December
December 23, 2016 at 4:09 pm
It seems pretty plain that Jesus of Nazareth, if he had existed at all, was not born 25 December. Here is a list of human beings who were born on that day, each of whom has had a more positive impact on my life than Jesus:
-Isaac Newton
-Clara Barton
-Conrad Hilton
-Robert Ripley
-Humphrey Bogart
-Cab Calloway
-Rod Serling
-Jimmy Buffett
-Sissy Spacek
-Annie Lennox
Boru

This is great! This means I can watch Casablanca and call it a holiday movie.

If we've got the correct year of his birth then through celestial events we can determine he was born on Dec. 25th. I've tried for the past two Christmas seasons to get some unbeliever to get a copy of the dvd, The Star of Bethlehem and take a serious attitude going into it, but no one has and I guess no one will. Makes me feel like people are afraid of science because that is what's used to test the Bible story of Jesus birth and death.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.

I remember hearing it was estimated Jesus would have been born in March. I have no idea if I'll be able to find a source for that now.
But I'm also born in March.
I'm not saying I'm Jesus. That is for other people to say.

Hey, buddy - you can beat your meat to whatever propaganda nonsense you want - during the holidays, or otherwise. Those movies are made
for you and by dimwitted a**holes like you, with no understanding of science and only interested in proselytizing and circle-jerking. There's an idiotic video made for everything nowadays and selling Jesus crap to dipsh*ts is a great business.
Have yourself a Happy Pagan Holiday, numbnuts...

Mrs Zebo was born on December 25th (but she doesn't get birthday cards and presents until 6:30 pm)
