Nice info. May be worth mentioning that Jesus' birthday is not even the 25th. Christmas being on the 25th came as result of Emperor Constantine the Great merging Paganism and Christianity to appease his divided populous. This is also when the Sabbath day was changed to Sunday, a blatant Pagan reference to Sun worship.
Thank you for sharing this. I don't think many people know the roots of the celebration they take part in every year.
I was about to add that there's no way a dove can fertilize a woman... But I try to stay away from being too blunt to the always friendly and tolerant christian community. They don't like you talking about their comic books.
I think you will find that Steemit community--at least at the moment--is a lot more open-minded and open to discussion than you'd think.
I made a post a couple of days ago expressing in depth the problems I have that prevent me from believing in the Bible and it was received very well -- in spite of many cases of what some would call blasphemy.
Next time you ought to just say what's on your mind.
Meh, I prefer to stay away from cheap soap-operas. I believe in science books, others believe on jewish fairy tales about a superman... Each one is happy that way.

I'm a believer of evidence, there's never an absolute truth, yet sciences get us closer at every step.
This is an excellent an answer. Retain that perspective if you can.
