Christianity EtcWhen Was Jesus Born ? by hooged(op): 7:53am On Dec 28, 2013
The Bible’s answer

The Bible does not give a specific date for the birth of Jesus Christ, as these reference works show:

“"The true birth date of Christ is unknown."”—New Catholic Encyclopedia.

“"The exact date of Christ’s birth is not known."”—Encyclopedia of Early Christianity.

While the Bible does not directly answer the question, ‘When was Jesus born?’ it does describe two events surrounding his birth that lead many to conclude that he was not born on December 25.
Not in winter

The registration. Shortly before Jesus was born, Caesar Augustus issued a decree ordering “"all the inhabited earth to be registered."” Everyone had to register in “"his own city,"” which might have required a journey of a week or more. (Luke 2:1-3) That order—probably made to support taxation and military conscription—would have been unpopular at any time of year, but it is unlikely that Augustus would have provoked his subjects further by forcing many of them to make long trips during the cold winter.

The sheep. Shepherds were “"living out of doors and keeping watches in the night over their flocks."” (Luke 2:cool The book Daily Life in the Time of Jesus notes that flocks lived in the open air from “"the week before the Passover [late March]"” through mid-November. It then adds: “"They passed the winter under cover; and from this alone it may be seen that the traditional date for Christmas, in the winter, is unlikely to be right, since the Gospel says that the shepherds were in the fields."”

In early fall

We can estimate when Jesus was born by counting backward from his death on Passover, Nisan 14 in the spring of the year 33 C.E. (John 19:14-16) Jesus was about 30 years old when he began his three-and-a-half-year ministry, so he was born in the early fall of 2 B.C.E.—Luke 3:23.
Why is Christmas on December 25?

Since there is no evidence that the birth of Jesus Christ occurred on December 25, why is Christmas celebrated on this date? The Encyclopaedia Britannica says that church leaders probably chose it “"to coincide with the pagan Roman festival marking the ‘birthday of the unconquered sun,"’” at the time of the winter solstice. According to The Encyclopedia Americana, many scholars believe that this was done “"in order to make Christianity more meaningful to pagan converts."”

PoliticsKwankwaso Formally Joins APC by hooged(op): 8:44pm On Dec 19, 2013
Governor Rabi’u Kwankwaso of the northern
Nigerian state of Kano, has formally declared
for the All progressives Congress (APC). He
made the declaration shortly after a meeting
with former PDP stakeholders at the
Government House, Kano, on Thursday.
He said he found it necessary to leave the PDP
in order to bring about democratic change in
the country.
“It is imperative to leave the old order and
embrace the new order found in the APC to
bring about democratic change in Nigeria,’’ he
said.
The governor, who hoisted the flag of the APC
in the midst of party supporters from the 44
local government areas of the state, promised
to carry everybody along in order to move the
state forward.
The APC flag had also been hoisted at the main
gate of the Government House, Kano.

PoliticsAregbesola Asks PDP To Demolish Party Secretariat by hooged(op): 8:25pm On Dec 11, 2013
DAILY TIMES
Osun State Governor, Mr. Rauf Aregbesola, has
written to the Chairman of the Peoples
Democratic Party in the state, Alhaji Ganiyu
Olaoluwa, asking him to demolish parts of the
party secretariat to create space for road
setback which the administration is embarking
upon.
The notice was contained in a letter written to
the PDP chairman by the Special Adviser to the
Governor on Lands, Phisical Planning and
Urban Development, Dr. Ayodele Owoade.
A copy of the letter as made available to our
correspondent in Osogbo by the special
adviser on Tuesday.
He said that although the PDP chairman
challenged the planned demolition of the party
secretariat in court but the court struck out the
suit for lack of diligent prosecution.
The letter read in part, “You will recollect that
you challenged the (demolition) exercise at the
High Court which made us to stop it as a
responsible government who observes the rule
of law. The matter which you brought to the
case has since been struck out leaving us with
no legal impediment to carry out the
demolition exercise.
“Attached is the court order for your
information and necessary action. We
therefore, advise you to voluntarily carry out
the demolition exercise in the spirit of
Omoluabi ethos which we are sure would have
been ingrained in you.”
According to the court order attached to the
letter addressed to the PDP chairman, Justice
A. A. Aderibigbe of an Osogbo High Court
struck out the suit filed by the PDP chairman to
challenge the planned demolition.
The judgment read, “I agree with the counsel
for the defendants ( governor) that the plaintiff
and his counsel have not been diligent in their
handling of this case. The pending application
for injunction filed on July 22, 2013 and the
entire suit filed on the same day are hereby
struck out for want of diligent prosecution.”
But the PDP chairman who warned the
governor against going ahead with the
demolition. He said that such action would be
resisted vehemently by the party.
Olaoluwa explained that the PDP had filed a
motion to reenlist the suit already struck out.
He said, “The PDP is a party that has respect
for the rule of law but any attempt to demolish
the fence of the Goodluck/Sambo campaign
office will be restricted vehemently.
We are admonishing the Director of SSS, state
police commissioner not to allow themselves
to be used by Aregbesola in his efforts at
pulling down the campaign office of President
Goodluck Jonathan.”

CrimeW-I-C-K-E-D-N-E-S-S: Bizman Ties Apprentice For 10 Days Without Food In Lagos by hooged(op): 7:16am On Sep 07, 2013
The victim lying on the bare floor inside the
kitchen
W-I-C-K-E-D-N-E-S-S: Bizman ties apprentice for 10
days without food in Lagos
When Thankgod Nwabisi, 23, left his village in Adani,
Uzo-Uwani L.G.A of Enugu State to serve as an
apprentice to an auto -parts dealer in Ladipo, Lagos,
popularly called Elopee, members of his family
heaved a sigh of relief, believing that their only child
was making a positive headway in life.
Little did they know that the secondary school holder
will end up being traumatized by his master. He was
thoroughly tortured, tied with ropes and dumped
inside a room in the master’s house for about ten
days without food or water. According to him, he was
accused of not reconciling their sale’s book properly
resulting in the loss of N4,000.
The ugly incident which took place at Number 1, Bisi
Yusuf area, Kainde in Ayobo, a suburb of Lagos State,
aroused the anger of their neighbours who promptly
alerted policemen on patrol from Ayobo division and
they swiftly responded. The eagle-eyed policemen
reportedly broke into the premises after making
frantic calls without response while the agonising
cries of pain was coming from one of the rooms in the
house.
When they succeeded in gaining entry into the
building, they were shocked to see a 23-year-old boy,
tied hands and legs and dumped like an animal in
one corner of the room. He had bruises all over his
body and his head was smeared with caked blood.
They quickly rescued the poor boy and while
searching the house, they saw a female teenager
who claimed to be a relation to the wife of his master
and they took all of them to their station for
questioning.
His plight
Police sources said while narrating his plight, the boy
disclosed that his master, Elochukwu Ikwueze, is
from Akama-Oye in Eziagu L.G.A. of Enugu State.
According to sources, the boy signed agreement to
serve the man for seven years, and he had already
served five years. They were living in a two-room
apartment at Number 43, Eyegun street, Mafoluku,
Lagos before his master got married and moved to
his own house at Ayobo. They normally spent
weekdays at Mafoluku but always spent weekends in
the man’s house at Ayobo.
The boy narrated that on Sunday, 25th of September,
while they were at Ayobo, they all embarked on
cleaning the house and it’s surroundings in the
morning. They continued with the exercise till
evening and when he requested for food, both his
master and his wife ignored him.
He said his master later started questioning him
about their sales the previous day and he explained
everything to him. “He complained that about
N4,000 was missing from a sale of N28,000 we made
but I explained everything to him yet, he insisted
that the money was missing. Later, I went into my
room .
Few minutes later, he came into the room, armed
with a huge stick and started beating me. He called
on my second and both of them tied my hands and
legs with a rope, dragged me into the kitchen and
locked the place up. I was abandoned inside the
kitchen for about three days until I noticed that
somebody slipped a plate of food through an opening
to me.
Hungrily, I ate the food. I was defecating and
urinating inside the same place until seven days later
when the pains became unbearable. I then started
crying and raising my voice, calling for help. It was
then that I knew that the small girl living with us, a
relation of my master’s wife, was also left in the
house and she was the person that slipped food into
the kitchen for me.
How he was rescued
“After sometime, I overheard people shouting at out
gate, calling for the door to be opened. Later, they
broke into the premises and I saw they were
policemen. They rescued me and took both of us to
their station where I narrated all that happened to
me.”
Crime Guard gathered that after Policemen broke
into the house, they found the female teenager in the
parlour. She led them to the kitchen where they saw
the boy, tied like a goat with splashes of his urine
and excreta all over the room. The divisional Police
officer, Musa Lariski reportedly directed his men to
quickly rush the boy to the nearest hospital where he
was giving proper medical attention beofore he was
brought back to the station.
It was learnt that since then, all efforts made by
detectives to trace the owner of the house and his
wife yielded negative results.A team of policemen
were also said to had gone to his shop at Ladipo
market only to discover that he had not shown his
face since the the boy was rescued from his house. It
was gathered that one of the market leaders assured
the police that they will trace his whereabouts and
bring him to the station.
Meanwhile, when Crime Guard had a brief encounter
with the distraught boy, he was crying and lamenting
the fate that befell him. In tears he said, “My fear is
that he has my identity card and he may fram me up.
I did not take even a kobo from his money, he was
only trying to avoid settling me after my
stewardship.
That is how he has been treating all the boys that
suffered for him, he will frame you and deny you
reaping the reward of your stewardship. Whatever
happened, I am happy with the police for rescuing
me alive. Who knows what could have happened to
me later,” he questioned.
