Research shows that Jesus was born around March time, so why do we celebrate his birthday on December 25th??

i agree with you on that. the pagans gave that date and the people were forced to follow it...

I believe the pagans celebrated the Winter solstice on 25th December, so to get the pagans to convert to Christianity they kind of joined the 2 religious festivals into one day. Everybody is Happy and Christianity gets some followers.
