Let's partake in the forgiveness of God and religion.

>Many Latter-day Saints believe that April 6 was the actual date of Christ’s birth. This belief is based on the first verse of an1830 revelation to Joseph Smith indicating the date for officially restoring the Church.

>The rise of the Church of Christ in these last days, being one thousand eight hundred and thirty years since the coming of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ in the flesh, it being regularly organized and established agreeable to the laws of our country, by the will and commandments of God, in the fourth month, and on the sixth day of the month which is called April (D&C 20:1).

[mormon guy !nAP.g00d1k No.]

>A number of Saints have read this passage as a revelation that the Church was restored on the very day Christ was born. This would mean that according to our current calendar, Jesus was born on April 6, 1 B.C. (there is no 0 B.C. or 0 A.D.). It appears that B.H. Roberts may have been among the first to suggest this reading when in 1893 he commented:

>I believe that this [D&C 20:1] – better than any other authority, fixes the time of the birth, or the ‘coming of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ in the flesh;’ and that, as to the year at least, agrees with the Dionysian computation. It must be remembered that this revelation in Section twenty of the Doctrine and Covenants was given before the Church was organized—at sundry times between the first and the sixth of April—and that the prophet was instructed to organize the Church on the sixth day of April, 1830, hence it was not mere chance that determined the day on which that organization took place.... (Roberts, 1893, 17.)

O I C, Sorry. The lack other religion knowledge makes me a douchebag.

[mormon guy !nAP.g00d1k No.]

Though there's some in the mormon church that disagree it's a pretty feasible date for several reasons.

1. there's an old tradition that Christ was born on the day that he died. Many Christians merge this with Dec 25th saying that perhaps he was conceived on the day that he died.

2. the bible states that shepherds were in their fields when the angels came to them, shepherds are only in their fields in the middle east in spring, the season of birthing.

3. the inns being all filled would make no sense if it was simply a case of being taxed and counted, a census and tax would be given years to perform but in the season of passover it's easy to fill both Jerusalem and Bethlehem.

Anyway, us crazy mormons, merry Christmas /jp/!

I'd become religious for that church.

[mormon guy !nAP.g00d1k No.]

>>2378848
lol, nah we celebrate christmas same as everyone, we just hold conference on or as close to April 6th as possible each year.

[mormon guy !nAP.g00d1k No.]

In fact I bet if I went down the street telling people Merry Christmas even here in the heart of Utah I'd be more likely to get a kick to the crotch. It's not something we celebrate.

I wouldn't mind celebrating it in April. Skip the bullshit involved with everyone deciding to do it at the same time.

Oh, come the fuck on. Who the hell made that pic?
As much as I couldn't care less about religion either, at least I concede that Jesus WAS a historical figure and there are more reliable documentations backing this up than there are to prove Shakespeare's whole existence.

There is no evidence for Santa Claus and there is some evidence for Jesus. I don't believe he existed, but don't be stupid.

Santa Clause is based on the dutch holiday "Sinterklaas"
Which is based on the birthday of "Saint Nicholas". There is some proof of the existance of this saint.
