Jesus's Birthday

[DougShrapnel]

When I was much younger I had one of the first doubts regarding the nature of xtianity. I had read something by some historian that mentioned that historians now put jesus's birth day some time in september or october. I asked those knowledgable about xtianity, about changing the day we celebrate to a more factual day. Those that had no idea that jesus was not actually born on Dec 25th. Denied, in the face of evidence, and said that is not what they believed. They were insulting that anyone would dare call into question the actual birthday. As if his actual birthday was a matter of opinion that demanded respect, and Dec 25th was the only acceptable opinion of a christain. I wondered what other truths later discovered by evidence they are dening. I did run into a few brave souls that admited that we could be wrong about his bday, but insisted that it didn't matter to change the tradition. So how bout it. Was the son of god born on Dec 25th?
