But is there not a connection between what is written in the bible and the dating?
We know the Annunciation is celebrated on March 24th, and they just added 9 months flat to arrive at Dec 24th.
We know John the Baptists Birthday is celebrated on June 24th and Mary visited Elizabeth on the day of the Annunciation and Elizabeth was said to be exactly 6 months pregnant.
Also, the book of Chronicles talks all about the 24 priestly divisions and when each would serve based on the lunisolar calandar. Zacharias is talking with Gabriel in the temple about Elizabeth being able to have a baby 9 months before June 24th...
Zacharias would have been in charge of Sukkot in 2 BC and I am fairly certain in you check the lunisolar calandar, Sukkot started on Sep 24th in 2BC.
Sol Invictus was a Pagan RESPONSE to Christmas. The 24th was a date set almost immediately after the life of Christ.
If all this sophistry is true, WHY does the feast of Sol Invictus not pop up untill Christianity is on the rise in Rome, and COMPLETELY dissappear after Christianity is decriminalized in the Empire?
The date comes from the Bible and an assumed 9 month gestational period, thats all.
Chesterton thought so... region locked capitalism!

Any member of the FoP should be lined up and forgotten in a mass grave.
What sort of retarded comment is this? Maybe I DO feel the same way??
We need all tribes disbanded and their assets seized... current tribal leaders need to face the firing squads or lethal injection. Tribal members must be cowed or expelled from the borders of the US.

Something about a mortuary in close proximity?
You say that, but yet you refuse to use your powers for anything but retardation.

I remember going to visit my grandfather at his all-masonic retirement village and it was one of the nicest communities I've ever seen. My grampa once told me that since they don't allow niggers in the masons they dont allow niggers in their communities.

Now can we get 3000 private aircraft owners to do the same on the runaways?🤣
Yes, there are many who want to connect Christianity to something Pagan, like the OP. Historical record is clear that the December festival of note was Saturnalia and that was over long b4 the 25th and as noted, the Emperor was pushing BACK against already existing Christian celebrations when he essentially fabricated his own 'Pagan Christmas."
I wonder if praying or bowing or singing means Christians are Pagan... cuz well... Pagans bowed and sung and prayed...😆.
