no, he wasn't born in december
why december 25th? its the christianity way of disguising what was originally a Pagan Holiday, by attributing jesus's birth with this day.

Nobody knows where he was born. The Catholic Church wanted to christianize the pagan's holiday of winter solstice. The pagans would drink and dance, the Church thought this behavior was abhorrent and decided to inject Christianity into it. We might never know when Jesus was born but over time December 25th has become know as his birthday.

No, he wasn't.
I know this because December didn't exist when he was born.
The exact date isn't in the bible, but scientists have studied the astrological activities that have been described as occuring around the birth of Jesus...I believe they have tracked it to a date in summer time.

No one knows the exact date Jesus was born or when he died. By the way, what does this question have to do with Government?

It is not known for sure. But, society decided to set a day aside in the year to celebrate his birth day, considering he is supposed ot be the savior. They have no certain reson for choosing th day they did.
