What I don't understand is why Ethiopia with all the hot bannies seems detached from the rest of Africa. Is it language barrier or something else? I'll need to go check out Addis Ababa someday

January 7th, 2023 is being celebrated as Christmas Day in Ethiopia and by the Orthodox Churches.

#MerryChristmas It's no news that Ethiopia has a different Calendar from the rest of the world.

So Today we wish Ethiopians a Merry Christmas and a prosperous New year.

NB: #Ethiopia is still in the year 2015
Note Also That: The Orthodox Church continue to use the Julian Calendar.

The day, period and time is the same only the calendars differ, Gregorian and Julian. Should I enlighten you more?



Something cannot be same day and different calender: It does not make sense.
If I was born during the spring, and a random calender somewhere push my date to August, how does that make sense?
No one really knows the exact day he was born. 25th for example was just accepted by some sect to commemorate the birth of Jesus.

See Christianity that still sustaining the mode of dressing of Mary, the mother of Jesus. This is the dressing some christians in Nigeria classified as weird or ancient, or uncivilized.

The world does not change, ways of worshipping God doesn't no change, it's human being that's changing under the disguise of new innovation, which only okay for technology, not for what God warn us not to do.

Don't be deceived by the West, it's only Islamic religion insisted not to be influenced with new innovation that goes against their faith championing by the West while few countries like Russia, Romania, Ethiopia and some others resisted to dilute Christianity via deceit of the West.

I thought the wearing of the hijab is bad, uncivilized and unchristian.
Why are ethiopian Christian women putting on the hijab? Something is definitely wrong somewhere. Someone should come and tell us what is happening here

Jesus is not even aware of Christmas, he didn't command anyone to do it, so everyone is celebrating it at whatever time they so wish

The birth is the day you choose to celebrate physically,because both his birth and death is spiritually designed, "according to the scripture". Even is words are not physical,as you may think.THE BIRTH OF CHRIST IS THE DAY YOU ARE GIVEN THE NAME OF GOD AND HIS SON.

Re: January 7th Is Christmas In Ethiopia by osazuwa23: 9:15am On Jan 08, 2023
it called Netela (Amharic: ነጠላ) is handmade scarf-like two-layered cloth made of cotton worn by Ethiopian and Eritrean women. The netela is a well known and commonly worn garment in both countries. The male equivalent is known as the kuta.[1] It is very thin and delicate, with the texture of gauze. The netela has only two layers and is quite large, measuring about 63 x 102 inches.[1] It is white with colorful intricately woven borders called ṭibébé (ጢቤቤ). The tibebe is between 1 and 2 inches at each end, with two variations: one composed of only one color, and the other of multiple colors and patterns.

The netela can be worn in different ways. For general wear, When going to church, the two layers of the netela are opened, and the border is folded over both shoulders instead of just the right shoulder. The netela covers the back and shoulders. When the border is worn around the face or shoulders, it is a sign of mourning, but in moments of leisure the border goes over the left shoulder.[1] hijab is worn for modesty and cover up and oppression toward women rights

It's simple! December 25 is not written in the Bible. How was it derived?

How did you expect December 25 to be written in Bible when Gregorian calendar was not in used when he was born. Read the short note I sent to you don't be reluctant
