    It amazes me how many people still think Jesus was born 25th December. I always hear it on the radio “happy birthday Jesus” and I just think, how stupid are you?

      It is a celebration of his birth. So happy birthday Jesus is not wrong.

        Imagine being told that your family was going to celebrate your birthday on Halloween because they wanted to celebrate Halloween and that’ll let them celebrate it without being “pagan”…. When your birthday was in late spring.

          I don’t think he minds all that much, Jesus is pretty forgiving.
