Christmas should be celebrated in June or July if it really is a true religious holiday.

Now for a true religious holiday, celebrate Hanukkah stating sundown Dec 11.

No, but it's shopping days... If you order online you have to calculate a few days extra to make sure it can be delivered on time!

Obvioulsy, I don't know when it is, either. Thanks to Jon for informing me. It comes on a variable date every year, so I thought it was the 17th this year.

Only if you accept the testimony of people who were describing events at which they were not present.

The earliest and presumably most accurate record of the historical Jesus is that gospel called Mark, and it gives no hint of the time of year of his birth. Paul's writings, which preceded all of the Gospel accounts, offer even less biographical material upon which to draw any conclusions.

People, its a 'fun' thread.

About Christmas. Not Festivus, (tho I still almost wet myself each time that episode is shown), Hannukah or any other holiday.

Regardless of when the nitpickers here say it was....we celebrate on the 25th.

Thats the count-down date.

And sweetpea.......I mean no disrespect to you.
