For nearly 1,700 years, Christians has celebrated Dec 25th as
the birth of Jesus Christ.
Dec 25th as Christ's birthday makes its way into a "calendar" or
chronology created in 354 AD/CE called the Calendar of Filocalus or
Philocalian Calendar.............listing it as the Natalis
Invicti, which means "Birth of the Unconquered
(Sun)..............JUST LIKE....... MITHRA !!!
#### What is seldom known is prior to that time, Christ's
birth was placed on a variety of days..............Jan 5th, Jan
6th, Mar 25th, Mar 28th, Apr 19th, Apr 20th, May 20th, Aug 21st,
Nov 17th and Nov 19th.
#### Many have come to understand that "Dec 25th"
represents not the birthday of a "historical" savior named Jesus
Christ but the winter solstice in the northern hemisphere, when the
sun is said to be "born again," "renewed" or "resurrected."
#### Many earlier Gods also had their birthdays at or
around Dec 25...............the birthday of the Greek god Dionysus
was placed on December 25th,
#### In the sacred site at Newgrange -
Ireland............. a 5,000-year-old "cross of light" representing
the resurrection to life or rebirth on "Dec 25th" was found.
There are many other sites aligned to the winter solstice, such
as at Goseck, Germany, which may be 7,000 years old.
The winter solstice was an important factor in human culture at
least 12,000 years ago.
"'Christmas' is thus an
extremely ancient celebration, predating the Christian era by many
millennia."
The winter solstice celebration that developed throughout much
of the inhabited world has been handed down as "Christmas," i.e.,
Dec 25th, the birthday of the "sun of God."
"Christmas" is thus an extremely ancient celebration, predating the
Christian era by many millennia.
