The Winter Solstice for we that reside in the Northern Hemisphere is the shortest day of ‘sun’ light every year. This is the appointed time wherein Emmanuel = God with us was Divinely conceived.

I see, and as you assert this as a fact, where is your substantiation for this, or are we to understand as corresponding to your screen name?

For me it is an attempt to not allow the personal emotions of any one individual to draw my attention from that remembrance. For God so loved the world .....

That motive is only affirmed, but so was David's in having the ark carried by men, but good motives alone (which some liberals share) do not validate actions.

[Just mythoughts]

Have you never read Luke? Zacharias, of the course of Abia: gives the reader a time of the year... 6 months later was the conception of Christ. Since you and your cohorts have need to be snarly without having read I am not going to do your homework.

And as I already informed your cohort, my screen name came from when Bobby Woodward was reading the mind of Condi Rice, nothing more or nothing less.
