Title: Christmas in June?
Post by: Libertas on December 25, 2012, 01:56:22 PM

Reviving an old debate.

Could it be that perhaps only the Magi visited the child in June?  He could have still been born earlier...

Interesting debate but it does not alter the articles of faith for His birth or mission on earth.

It strengthens the faith if you ask me.  There really was a bright star. 

As for the rest, we already pretty much knew December 25 was an invented date.

Except the heathens who keep relearning it and act like it's new. Some folks are slow learners.
