    Doesn't exist.

    Nonetheless there is a little secret connecting Oct 1 and Dec 25 ca. I won't tell it out loud though.

    That isn't in the bible. December 25th is just a date chosen by the Catholic Church on which to COMMEMORATE the birth of Christ.

    Christmas: "a Christian feast on December 25 or among some Eastern Orthodox Christians on January 7 that commemorates the birth of Christ and is usually observed as a legal holiday"

    Not possible to do this...unless the bible was rewritten. I've asked my parents why we celebrate his birthday on this day, and have mixed in a story about a saint with saturnalia....

    Family time in the winter is good, so is the food, what other reason do we need? Here's an interesting website about when Jesus may have been born....

    It doesn't, but it does have references to when Christ was born. December 25 was chosen by early Christians to coincide with several feasts and festivals already being celebrated, probably as protective cover to keep from being slaughtered. The date isn't as important as the fact that Christ was born. You might also remember that the Roman calendar of that time had 10 months.

    There isn't because man as wrote the bible so many times down the years they have confused the world, so what im saying is there is not much evidence or facts to back up this story

    There is isn't some people think Jesus was born in August the whole thing in December is probably due to the winter solstice we don't really know what month he was born but it christmas still has the symbolic meaning behind it

    There isn't one. It's a Roman religion date that was conveniently adopted.
