Richard Dawkins casted doubt on Jesus Christ's existence in the God Delusion. Professor John Lennox corrected him on early recorded history and Dawkins himself admitted that Christ did most likely exist.

Are you a bit confused on the difference between Jesus and God?

I'm guessing most of us still posting here at this stage aren't particularly Christian, so we know how to do it best.

No I'm just pointing out that most historians agree that this Jesus character did most likely exist. Dawkins tried to deny this in is book.

Why do Christians celebrate his birth on the wrong day? Even the pope said he was born in BC. Hardly on the same date.

I is athiest and celebrate St Nicholas day on the 6th, Christmas eve with fish and barszcz and christmass with turkey... all awesomes. None require any christian belief at all..(in fact the irony of the OP's lack of knowledge of these festivals origins is funny)
