Most christians do not believe that Christ was born on Dec. 25th, He was most likely born in Sept. or Oct. and as for His death and resurrection, like thesummerqueen said it falls at Passover which moves in the Jewish calendar according to the moon phase.
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 still haven't seen proof that he was ever born, lived, or died in actual reality.
Anyone out there have any evidence?

That probably depends on the clergyman, wouldn't you say?
Most of the fundie lunatics here in the states would ask why the questioner had "lost his faith?"
(That's the head game they like to play with those clowns.)

Greek orthodox xtians do not use Dec. 25. I mean, I expect such variation with fantasies.

Even fundamentalists will admit they are not sure when in the year Jesus was born. Also that the holiday of Saturnalia (which fell at the same time as Christmas) got appropriated by Christians (at least in the west).
