Why do you folks celebrate his "death" and "rising" on different days each year?

Yet you celebrate his "Birthday" on the same day?

That is the most basic and easy answer.

As for Christmas.......Jesus wasnt believed to be actually born on that date. Some research believe it was more of a spring birth, but throughout time they settled on a singular date to celebrate his birth.

This is a lot of what's wrong with the world. If you don't have anything nice to say, then just keep your fucking mouth shut.

Sorry for cussing on a "he has risen" thread.

LOL. Seems like people only want their "religious freedom" acts when it supports them!
