			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Now that Christmas is done with, let&#8217;s stir things up a little. ;)</p>
<p>Muslim&#8217;s believe Jesus was born in the Summer, as mentioned in the Qur&#8217;an.<br />
Christian&#8217;s believe Jesus was born on December 25th, however, this is not mentioned in the bible&#8230;<br />
Jehova&#8217;s Witnesses believe Jesus was born in October &#8211; and they are probably correct.</p>
<p>Isn&#8217;t it funny how Religion is so blindly followed by so many, many people? Jesus told his disciples to celebrate his &#8220;death&#8221;, not his birth &#8211; yet (and I include myself in this, as although not religious, I do do &#8220;the gift thing&#8221; at Christmas), we celebrate his birth. Why?</p>
<p>Well, let me tell you the story of someone:<br />
He was born in a manger to a Virgin mother.<br />
His followers drank wine and ate bread in a ceremony of baptism.<br />
He ate a last supper, with his twelve disciples.<br />
He died, came back seven days later, then rose to heaven.<br />
He was often depicted with a halo over his head.<br />
He is, of course, &#8220;Mithras&#8221; &#8211; an early pagan god, worshipped by the Romans long before the year zero.</p>
