The countdown is on for the day we are waiting for. A lot of discussion whether Christ was born on the 25th has been going on for millenia. Is it a big deal for you? For me, no big deal. Its the sharing of love and affection that is the core of the celebration.

I am not a Christian any more but I respect the lessons I learned from studying the bible. It doesn't matter to me what the occasion is supposed to be celebrating or when Christ was actually born.

@Barjeru Yes, I think of myself as atheist although I'm still spiritual. It was a gradual thing where learning more about the world, other religions, history, nature and the human psyche made me distance myself from Christianity.

I am just curious. Are you an atheist now? Why did you left the flock?

@redurnet Like what you did, I did a research. It is the same thing, history, disect other religions, but you know what? It will lead you back to Jesus Christ. Just think of it, after we die, the discussion of "Where would you want to be ultimately? Nothingness? or in Paradise with the messiah. No tears, no pain, and no injustice. Please think again my friend. He is looking at you with open arms.

The interesting question is why do people celebrate his birthday when we know it is not Dec. 25th, he never told us to celebrate his birthday and no servant of God ever celebrated his birthday?

I think celebrating his birthday creates a sort of Christian cohesiveness. Moreover, it is to remember that a savior is born for our salvation. The saying " I believe that somewhere in the darkest night a candle glows.

Not really.. However, I am not very keen on the eating and the commercial part of the celebration.. I bet he never celebrated his birthday.. all he did was follows his father's will for him.

Nice to hear that. For some people, identifying the exact date of Christ's birth is truly important.
