A cold December eve
I sat back
Into my seat
Started thinking about things
That I just could not believe
Is this a dream
Well, it’s hard to know
Exactly what they mean
When they’re saying
All those things
That I just could not believe
Is this a dream
Have I been niave
Is this all fantasy
Add up all the pieces
And, it’s easy to see
I just can’t believe
Now, there is hope
For a dredge like me?
… then, let it be
All those things
That I just now could believe
“Joseph and Mary were at Bethlehem to enroll [in the census] when Jesus was born (Luke 2: 1-7). Quirinius, the Governor of Syria, conducted this census. Based on the believed date of this census, some place Jesus’ birth at 6 B. C.”
Is it hard to believe that Jesus was born in 6BC? Does that make any sense to you? Is religion real? What happens to religious beliefs when humans extinct themselves?
