What? You don't believe that:

1. Jonah was swallowed by a whale?
2. Moses parted the Red Sea?
3. Jesus wanted to convert the pagans to a religion not yet invented?

For shame.
You mean to tell me that it's true!!!!!! Well, I thought they were myths
printed in that book of tall tales.

JimC,
I think you missed the point, maybe intentionally, maybe not. I don't think
any Christians believe Dec. 25th is the actual day Christ was born. They
believe they are using that day to celebrate his birth, not that it is his
actual birthday.

JimC,
Why is the fact that Dec. 25th is not the actual birthday of JC matter?
I
don't think anyone really thinks 12/25 is his birthday, they use that
annual
date to celebrate his birth. It is very common among parents who adopted
children from overseas, to designate a date to celebrate the child's
birthday. They know it is not the actual date, but it allows them to
celebrate their child's birthday. Why is this so hard to understand?
You don't have to convince me of that fact! I fully understand the myth
of it. Tell that to the fans of Christmas in this group. I am not one
of
them. I am not a Christian.

It's all true. Especially the last. Actually, it was Paul who allegedly
wanted to convert the pagans to Judaism. Jesus wasn't interested in
pagans, which is one of the great ironies of "Christianity."

No, Lord Smithers, I didn't miss the point at all. There are many
Christians believe the bible, word for word and they still think the Jesus
Christ was born on Christmas Day. These Christians then want to make the
whole rest of the world believe it also. I just don't believe it. You
can believe what you want to believe in, birthday or not, just don't try to
force it on others, in your country, that do not share your belief.
Remember, your country is the one that is supposed to be free.

Thanks JimH, but I would have thought that you would have called it
inappropriate. Thanks for agreeing with me that the bible is a book of
myths.

By the way, shouldn't a good Christian, like you, be at your church on this
Sunday morning?

You apparently are ignorant of the origins of Christianity.

Not at all.


Here's a secret: Jesus wasn't involved.


Really? What a revelation. So remind me again where I said that Jesus was
involved in the origins of Christianity Harry.

Read it again yourself, you wrote it! It says that you find it
appropriate........that some persons are mocking the bible on a Sunday
morning.

Did you not write that? Do you deny it? It is written just above here
for you to read now.

JimC,
Even if the bible is not an accurate record of historical events, don't you
agree that the principles taught in the new testament are those that are
good for society and individuals?
