Even Christians admitt that the gospels say he was born while sheepherds were keeping their sheep; that would make his birthday spring or fall. The most likely time is October.

Jesus could not have been born anywhere near winter solstice, and the Feast of Saint Nicholas is in early December.

Why do Christians not give up on blotting out Saturnalia?

Science is ONLY for the physical world. It has no bearing on the spiritual world. Aren't you tired of scientists trying to over step their bounds?

This is not intended to be malicious or provocative so please forgive me if it is recieved in this way.
If there is no purpose in life, if there is no God who gave us life and if there is no afterlife then why go through with one more day of waking up early or working at a job you hate? It is true that you wont be able to experience the joys of life but you will still have to put up with the severe challenges of life, and much of life is challenging and painfull. When you are dead, you feel and experience nothing. Isn't death more attractive than life and isn't suicide an honorable and logical action??

Who do you think created man, animals etc. It had to start somewhere. The earth was without void so someone had to start life on this earth and it had to be someone with some super natural power. Things didn't just materialize by itself. God has made it all possible.

I have had several christians say to me lately when discussing the historical acuracy of the bible stories

"WE know it isn't historically true but it is religiously true?

What does this mean? Something is true or not true, there is no real grey area?

I don't think we can, we just don't want to go through the embarassment of asking around if we can't.

Furthermore, why do many believe the New Testament was misinterpreted, modified and even made up to support claims of Christians??

We are born in sin and many go to hell without even hearing the name of Jesus. God punishes Adams descendents or at least allowed that the innocent be born with a curse they did nothing to deserve.

ive always seen ppl at a deeper level then others. example. a street walker sells her body for crack. should i leave her on the streets or should i have compassion knowing that something in her childhood caused her to believe this is her only way? not everyone has Christ in their lives, not everyone is strong minded. i look at her and think she probably had a very tramatizing life. she s doing what she thinks she knows to do to ease the pain. do you just down her and degrade her or do you have compassion for her. this is just 1 example.

Is it time that Yahoo changed the reasons that the report abuse button can be used?
I myself have used it on only a few occassions,generally if someone has used foul and abusive language or has a pornographic avatar ( kids use this site ).
It would seem that there are some who use it purely because they do not agree with somebody else's opinion.Some people have had accounts deleted purely for voicing their opinions.
Surely if you are not mature enough to debate your side,you are not mature enough to be here.
