    Who's to say that the weather two thousand years ago is identical to that of today?

    Interesting, the weather is quite mild in December.

    Hmm, this describes the conditions that the Bible supposedly reports in Jerusalem when Jesus was born. I didn't know that "partly cloudy" and "sunny" were hallmarks of rainy or snowy weather. And, those temperatures are roughly 68-70 F for highs, with lows in the upper 40s or lower 50s. And, with Jerusalem in a similar climate region to southern California or southern Arizona, this is quite normal for temperatures to be in this range during December.

    Does the Filthful and Disgraceful Slavebugger have actual weather data for the region for December 2BC? If not, "evidently" is not good enough for a doctrine that I am supposed to stake my life on.

    I think the Slave has lied about the weather around Judea when Jesus was born.

    WTwiz is right. I noticed how warm and sunny the wether was on the reports about the two women stabbed near jerusalem. Southern jordan has had forest fires....

    So Bethleham mid winter weather is the same as UK summer weather.

    The WT is not the authority on refuting when Jesus may have been born. There are other sources but the weather thing is interesting.

    The JW's can't 'shepherd the sheep' in ANY weather.
