Proof of young earth creation? Christian foundations will you fund my expedition to Pakistan?
The Neolithic community at Mehrgarh dates back to 7000 BCE
If we are right and the calculations made by Creation theorists from the Bible are true then the people here must have lived with dinosaurs and woolly mammoths.
Since they were an agricultural people they would have used domesticated animals.
All I have to do is excavate the evidence that they rode dinosaurs or mammoths and used them a...

Please read details, Is it a sin for a Christian to marry a Non-Christian?
I'm a Christian, dating an Agnostic. We've both thought about marriage before but we're both young so it's not a serious matter yet.
From what I've read, no one will actually answer the question flat out. They answer a question with a question and ask "Why would you want to?" Well, because I love him. I can't help who I love. While I know it says there are likely to be problems in an unequal m...

Who knows when Jesus was really born, and if 25 Dec isn’t the actual date why it was set to be Xmas Day?
Posted By: Adam on January 25, 2012 in Uncategorized - Comments: 11 Comments »
Jesus or Essa, the son of Merriam the daughter of Zachariah, born
during a hot summer climate, and it was in a secluded area but not a cave, and Dates do plum in August and that was the food the marry used to gain back her strength…
But based on the practices of the following Churches as…
1- Eastern Greek Orthodox Church Celebrates the Birth of
Jesus in every January
2- Western Roman Catholic Church Celebrates this day in Feb
but they don’t
3- The Protestant Church,
The Angelical Evangelical Church,
The Methodist Church,
The Lutheran Church and other derivatives
The later day of Saints Church
All do celebrate this day as 25 Dec every year and they are derivatives of the Protestant Church that went a muck from the Western Roman Catholic Church.
…Do you know the Truth…?
Can one tell truth about the actual birth date and give a good proof. Why Christian place a tree that does not exist in his birth place, & who is Santa?

The myth talks about Shepards tending their flock. Shepards don’t tend their flock in the middle of deep winter. Especially outside in the cold that December brings. They tend their flock in the spring.
It was set it December 25th for several reasons. The PPagan festival of the Winter Solstice is on the 21st and the Roman God Mithras birthday was on the 25th. The church couldn’t stop people from celebrating the festivals and they were failing at the conversion to Christianity because of it.
So, the church decided to change the holiday so that it celebrated Jesus instead. It made it easier to convert people.
The church is not all sweetness and light and it was a good decision by their way of thinking. Helps to convert people.
Thing is, people are now wise to what they did and they don’t like it. Among the long list of things to dislike about Christianity.
That’s why Christmas is celebrated on December 25th.
the date was convenient because it is the date of an earlier pagan festival, just like easter. many of the features of christmas such as the tree were also taken from earlier religious festivals
Dec. 25th is celebrated as His birthday because of conversion attempts. When Christianity was attempting to convert pretty much all of Europe they made sure their religious holidays landed during times that were already celebrated as holidays in other religions. Earth-based religions celebrate the Winter Solstice during this time of year. Their traditions include a Yule log, trees, wreaths, etc.
These things still have meaning in Pagan holidays, but of course those traditions that have been “borrowed” by Christianity have their own spin on them now, such as the evergreen tree symbolizing God’s undying love for us.
Here’s a link explaining all modern holidays and their Pagan roots.

The celebration of the physical birth of God on earth is the essence of what we are celebrating. I think the date December 25 was celebrated as the birthday of Zeus, and as with many pagan days of importance the Catholic Church just kind of moved in and replaced the meaning.
It doesn’t matter what actual day Jesus was born. It’s just that we all just celebrate it on December 25.
Santa has really nothing to do with the Christian faith. I think that evolved from a legend about a generous old guy that took presents to local children in his area, and his name was St. Nicholas. Over time the pronunciation turned into Santa Claus.
Santa is to Christmas what the Easter Bunny is to Easter. Just kid stuff mixed in. No truth to it.
Who gives a hoot?
You sound like one of the Liberal or Muslim rectal apertures.
Merry Christmas!!!!!!
Exactly what “Jesus” are you referring to? When you said: Jesus or Essa, the son of Merriam the daughter of Zachariah” that is CLEARLY not Jesus, son of Mary and Joseph.
LOOK, as an evangelical Christian, let me set the record straight for you. No one knows exactly when Christ was born, some scholars says it was around March or April due to the records they found from the Roman census that may have been the one taken at the time of His birth.
When the Roman empire converted to Christianity, they chose December 25th because it was around the same time as the Winter Soltace, a pagan holiday already being celebrated. There are passages in the Bible that talk about these pagans burning “Yule logs” and decorating trees with bright objects in order to please their pagan gods.
So, now you know the truth, Christmas has definite roots in pagan practices. But so what? Are you going to reject Jesus Christ and His mission because we don’t know what day he was born on? Are you going to reject the teachings of God simply because a lot of Christians today are ignorant of their own history?
Who cares what day we celebrate Christ’s birth on? What matters is His life, death, and resurrection. Who cares if I put up a Christmas tree in my home to celebrate this? I’m not celebrating some ancient, moldly Babylonian “god,” I’m celebrating the birth of my savior, Jesus Christ.
Paul even writes, “Let no man judge you on the holidays you keep.”
What matters is what you do in your heart. Don’t reject the message of Christ because no one knows exactly what day He was born on.
Why does it matter?Was He born ?Muslims would not celebrate His birthday in any case.Is it a sin to put up a Christmas tree?Is Santa doing acts of evil (like terrorism)?Why is he of so much concern to you?
The date was chosen because it was a common Pagan holiday (Yule). The tree is brought into the house because that symbolizes life, even among the ‘death’ of the earth (winter) in particular, an evergreen. look kinda funny to have a dead oak in your living room….As far as His real b’day…well thats unknown, but its documented that he would have been born in the spring, or maybe summer. They told time and dates by the moon and the stars then, so, interestingly, a new moon began a new month. Also, in Luke 2,8: “That night some shepherds were in the fields outside the village guarding their flocks of sheep”… During winter nights sheep were normally held in stables. They were only left in the fields during warmer spring or summer nights.
Therefore it couldn’t possibly be in the chilly winter month of December. Again the evidence of the star in the sky must have been a planet, which travel at certain speeds,and are only visible at certain times in certain countries.
Santa….well lets see, according to legends, he was a saint who gave away what he had to help others….ie his inheritance according to one legend. I am not sure why the date was chosen for santa to come, have not figured that out yet lol. There are a couple of websites listed for you to look at, maybe they will help!

Actually, the Greeks celebrate it in January, which is why they split from Rome. John the Baptist was born about the time of the Passover and Christ was born six months later.
The date was chosen by the church because if was a Pagan holiday that the people already accepted, They felt they could just go along with the date, and get people to follow Christianity. As long as the church did not upset their routine, people might follow the church.
