The Birth Of Jesus

Jesus can't know what date he was born. Only Mary or Josoph, or Magis or other eyewitnesses can tell what date he was born. But no one says what date he was born clearly.

He was born through virgin Mary. So obviously no one knows what date he was born in the first place.

Who Made The Biggest Giveaway?

The Riddle Of Christmas
2006.12.27 2:42

For a few days before Christmas Day and after the day I've been reading many articles regarding the origin of Christmas. Usually we were told that Christmas is a birthday of Jesus, but why Christmas, not Christbirthday?
In some countries, especially in Latin countries like France, Portugal, Spain, Italy, the word for Christmas is directly derived from the birth of Jesus. The word for Christmas is Noel, Natal, Navidad, Natale respectively all mean Jesus's birth. In the first place was really Jesus born on the Christmas day? Many records suggest that the date Jesus was born is the 6th of January and this day has been celebrated as Epiphany, so why on Chiristmas day people celebrate Jesus's birth I boubt?
On the other hands, the Christmas means literaly Christ's mass, mass is a liturgy and usually held weekly or annually to commemorate the significance of sacrifice Jesus himself made. Jesus said at the Last Supper just before his crucification that we ought to hold Communion or Eucharist to commemorate -red wine is for His Blood and bread is for His Body, so if we were a Christian we ought to hold this ceremony, so Christmas has reason itself to be held, but why is it held on the 25th of December? I still can't get it.
Historically speaking Jesus's crucification took place after Passover, so generally it is taken for granted that the date of Jesus's death is April, or from late March to early May. Easter falls on the same season naturally. From a bibliographical description the 25th of December was celebrated as the birthday of Jesus as early as 354 so the history is not new at all.
Probably the date of his death was able to be specified, that is around April. Some early Christians believe that the date of the death of Jesus ought to be the same as the date of his conception in Mary, therefore nine months after the date of conception or crusification ought to be the date of his birth, so 25th of December is believed to fall on his birthday. This is a little bit unnatural explanation though. Another explanation is because 25th of December is winter solstice, the length of day starts longer from this day, the birth of Jesus is the birth of new hope in humankind. The day commemorates the start of prevailing hope.
Four days have passed since I started thinking about the meaning of Christmas. Christmas Day always makes us think the importance of giveaway. His biggest gift to us was his blood and body, Christmas commemorates his biggest giveaways anyway. Happy merry Christmas!

Hi, Kana...Merry Christmas

Hi, Kana...Merry Christmas!
Oftentimes I found hard to reach your 'add comment' section, therefore I was unable to make a comment nine out of ten!
But one moment in the evening on Christmas Day in 2006 I'm glad I got a greeting card from you.
Cheers,

One Problem

Manga

When I feel so blocked from any success, it's just fine to watch manga. I can fly over the sky of imagination where I can do anything. This feeling represents the mentality of Japanese. They know they never be No. 1.

Hello

On The Moon

There's a container. This case can contain 300 grams of something. But only it contains 95 grams.

There's one box. I could only find the portion of one-thirds of the size of the box. The box is too big to its extreme.

Around me there's too many things like these. As if I were living on the moon.

Being Famous

They are famous if those who are well known to the people they usually belong to. Those who appear in television, newspaper are not famous. They are not famous as long as they are outside the realms of my world.

One Time Visitor

Last night I watched the movie 'Ichigensan' from 2 am to 4 am. This movie was a very impressive movie.

Ichigensan means those who visit pub or restaurant only one time and no more.

Slave

When American writes the word 'slave', they use five strokes. Japanese have to write 21 strokes for this word in Japanese.

Japanese people work very hard, usually 12 hours in a day, 60 hours in a week. But Americans are able to do the same ammount of job for 8 hours in a day, 40 hours in a week. In ordinary time we can hardly see the difference since Japanese work extra 4 hours in a day, and 20 hours in a week, but once in time of emergency, Americans work 12 hours in a day. Obviously Japanese cannot afford to work for 16 hours in a day. In ordinary time Japanese are already working at full swing. They can nothing for it but to explode in time of emergency.

The fate of Japanese is clear. They need to be enslaved before soon.

I Found

I found the piece of paper which describes what I wanted to write. That says ' Fate Of Japanese', I will write about it in the next journal.

Star

My profile here has been seen in more than 1000 people. That's what I think I am famous.

I didn't want to be famous. -This expression connotes two different senses. One is I didn't want to be famous, so I am not famous now. And the other is I didn't want to be famous, but in spite of that I am famous now. So just the expression 'I didn't want to be famous' means either way.

The truth is I am not famous at all now. But I have started being known to many population through the Internet since two years ago. So I will be inevitably known to many people in the end, though I didn't want to be famous.

Ths truth is I was very famous when I was in school only inside school. I have been totally unknown to any one after I graduated. The reason I was only famous in school is because for me there was everything. Right now for me Slashdot, MySpace are everything, you are my star and so am I, as well as Marxist Hacker 42.

See You In Sweden

Hello, maria...
I am very glad to hear from you. Honestly speaking, I have been wondering how your trip to Hong Kong was.
Did you renew your profile? I read your new blurb. It was a full of confidence and determination as it used to be, I felt rejuvenated. Thanks so much.
Usually I work 8 hours in a day, besides I spend 5 hours in writing. I browse MySpace when I am really tired. Your profile and music encourage me a lot.
My mission is enormous. You are sure to understand how the gifted child was treated if you are a musician since you are a kid.
See you in Sweden.
