1) JESUS was not born on Dec 25.
Nimrod was, and since he is the person that supposedly became the sun-god after he died, that is why the sun-god was born on that date in every culture
2) There were not only 3 wise men, The BIBLE tells of 3 treasures, but those were not just gifts from strangers. They were HIS inheritance from Daniel, being delivered by Babylonian astronomers. After waiting for hundreds of years to deliver it, and knowing that they had to cross areas were thieves stayed, they would have been fools to take such treasures without many guards.
1)Your right,Jesus wasn’t born on Dec. 25, this is simply the day that his coming 2 earth is celebrated…
2)Yes,there could hav been over 5000 wisemen, but since this would be hard to put on a manger scene most manger scenes hav 3 wisemen as a symbol of the 3 gifts. Unfortunately many Christians believe that there were only 3 wisemen,as this is what they see,as many Christians are too lazy to research everything in their Bible.
I understand my answer wont be chosen as best,because on questions like this the asker usually chooses an answer that is most like there own,but,i wanted to inform you that well informed Christians are not idiots as you seem to believe.
