Interesting. It's been a long time since Catholic School. You guys are right. I had forgotten and all these years had thought that December,8 was the Immaculate Conception of Christ.
December 8th--conception.
December 25th--birth.
That's either one long-ass gestation period (what was Mary doing . . . clenching?), or Christ, He was in a hurry![/b]Yeah, even if he was born in March, which I believe is when he really was born.
