So you would PREFER to be born in a stable?

Or were you merely brought up in a barn?

@Clark kent,

You are consistently a fairy tale… and a complete drip (see http://www.thefreedictionary.com/drip and the 5th definition of the noun… Are you ever uplifting in any positive way outside of the snarky comics comments?

Gracias,

Glenn

You appear to be unaware of the specifics behind the gifts. []Gold was given in recognition of his being born a king (Joseph was of the line of King David).[]Frankincense was given in recognition of his being of divine nature.[]Myrrh was given in recognition of the prophecies concerning his death.

and they didn’t show up until much later after his birth

The people finally able to purchase private health insurance are not laughing at this cruel, anti-life attitude on the right. It’s the law. Get the hell out of the way and let it work.

People forget the original documents have been copied, translated, and edited by Humans for two thousand years. I doubt the original message is intact. Still, the first Golden Rule survived. That should be enough but St George Carlin was right. “Leave it to man to screw up the God thing.”

My thanks to President Obama, I now have health insurance I can afford. They can no longer deny me for my pre-existing condition, cancer. Again, thank you President Obama. I hope you can enjoy a vacation in Hawaii with your family.

My point is there’s no clear chain of evidence from the original documents, including the new testament. Each “new” copy is subject to error or interpretation. I’m commenting on the inherent uncertainty more than the content.
