    MrFun, there is no evidence that Jesus of Nazareth was born on December 25, much less in a manger in Bethlehem.

    I can't recall any of the Synoptic Gospels specifying that day.

    We may not know when Jesus was actually born, only that he really did exist and so the next best thing, is to have chosen a day to honor one of the greatest persons in the history of humanity.

            This is why you can never get a carpenter when you need one.
            Any views I may express here are personal and certainly do not in any way reflect the views of my employer. Tis the rising of the moon..

                What a tasteless thread, people.

                I do wonder what's the achievement in being a homeless former carpenter and changing the world, if you're still the Son of God.

                  Well, the only thing the sons of God achieve in the Jewish Bible is banging a bunch of chicks and breeding a race of giants. That's got to be Rassenschande!

                    Erm, no. You're confusing our mythology with someone else's.

                      No, I'm not. Read Genesis 6:1-4.

                                I bet you Jesus was a terrible carpenter. All his peers laughed at him so he devised this brilliant scheme to make people believe he had divine powers.

                                He got the last laugh. Even as he died on the cross.
