Do you know why all the sun gods like JC were born on Dec 25th? It's purely astrological. That's the day after the Winter solstice the sun moves, perceptably with the naked eye, north 1 degree, being "born again". Who says Christ was born on Dec 25? That's just the day his birth is celebrated. There is considerable evidence Dec 25 was picked as an alternative to the pagan celebrations to the solstice, though. |
