Most matters, until 1968.

Re: Christmas

I’m not religious at all but there does seem to be a smug glee from some in telling moderate normal religious people that it’s all made up.

Yes, like a sugar hit - it doesn't last long and the the smugness soon turns to snark when their little scheme derails.

Wow, how embarrassing. "For the mouth speaks what the heart is full of". (Luke 6:45). I suspect it does not bother Truthpaste one iota as he will be well aware of those words of Jesus and also these:

“If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated me first. If you belonged to the world, it would love you as its own. As it is, you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world. That is why the world hates you. (John 15: 19 & 19)

Re: Christmas

You may wish to dismiss Him, yet even in a mainly secular western word His arrival +2000 years ago is still dated at the top of every newspaper page and bottom right of most computer screens.
You may not know why you are giving & receiving gifts, but some people actually take the trouble to find out.

And what is the one-ness of God?

I think you need to be more precise regarding the date. +2000 will not cut it, sorry.

Who said these words ?

Re: Christmas

Who said these words ?

The clue is in the second sentence. I presume you will claim these are inventions but even if they were, can you honestly disagree with the sentiments?

I would suggest watching the following video about evidential audit trails about the background of various Jesus stories and how the the various branches of Abrahamist religions view 'him'. With respect, I think that very few believers actually know about such detail.

Did Jesus say these words ?

Or God ?

Or was it JON ?

Is he a prophet ? Was he a prophet ? I honestly don't know

Lots of people throughout history say inspirational things

Ghandi , King , Bertrand Russell

I have more time for what they said that what someone 2000 years ago possibly said
