Why is Christmas Day on the 25th December? No one knows the real birthday of Jesus! No date is given in the Bible‚ so why do we celebrate it on the 25th December?

The first recorded date of Christmas being celebrated on December 25th was in 336AD

After a careful analysis of the story‚ one must conclude that Visser intentionally attempts to convince her audience that fasting is wrong by appealing to
