Christmas Day
Christmas Day: Jesus' official birth day is 25th December. Church leaders decided this date in the 4th Century. Historians and theologians now believe that Jesus was born at some time between 4 and 6 BC or Before the common era, BCE as it is now called.Classic Christmas Picture - Star in the East

Dear Santa
If you leave a new bike under the tree, I will give you the antidote to the poison I put in the milk.

Service?
It was a cold and misty Christmas morning in the very depth of winter after a heavy fall of snow and only Farmer Evans and the Reverend Joseph Lancaster managed to arrive at the church for the morning service. 'Well,' said the Vicar laconically, 'I guess there's no point in having a service today.' 'Well that's not how I see it.' said Farmer Evans smartly. 'If only one cow turns up at feeding time, I still feed it.'Christmas Riddles
