todd h: the "Jesus" they were attacking wasn't the Jesus of The Bible. We know from The Bible, that The Christ was born sometime around or even on Passover and, of course, died at that time. The rest puts its stamp on Babylon being the origin of all false religions of the world; The Mother of Harlots, including of all false-christianity. The concept of "christianity" was that of the Roman Catholic abomination.
History has proven, especially through The Bible, that Satan runs a counterfeit for everything that God Almighty set forth.
