Stupidest stuff said in 2021. This why you wait til after Dec 31 is over

https://crooksandliars.com/2021/12/kilmeades-christmas-story

It started out with him praising Mary and Joseph for finding the manger so that the animals could heat the baby Jesus with their breath:

"I know we had this conversation before, but were the animals used, were their breaths used to heat Jesus?" Kilmeade wondered. "Remember the animals would go around because it was so cold in Bethlehem. I get them confused. It was so cold at that time, the animals breathed on him to keep him warm."

It was Steve Doocy - of all people - who had to remind Kilmeade that the original Bible story was that they were in the manger because there was no room at the inn.

Kilmeade agreed and added that the inn was full because of people traveling for the holiday season.

Gotta wait until the year is completely over, because they've got 6 whole days to say stupider things.

The holiday to celebrate the birth of Jesus was in full swing before he was born?
Wow, news of his birth and future life achievements sure travelled fast!

Actually . . . Facebook tells me - or maybe it was Twitter - there was room at the Inn, but Joseph left his American Express card at home and couldn't pay. So him and the missus were sent to bed down with the animals.

But it was a busy time, some sort of census happening I hear.

Looking forward to more stupid distortions of the past. 6 days left, try harder!

Do they make these fill-ins in a lab somewhere?

Anyway. I appreciate your research.



Merry Christmas 🎄

But the thing is, there’s no record in Rome of this census. It’s just more Biblical BS.

A worldwide census would have certainly been recorded but there’s no record of one during the time of Jesus’ supposed birth. So Jesus’ family’s journey to Bethlehem doesn’t make any sense.

There are so many flaws and contradictions in the Bible that it’s difficult to logically follow. Here’s a stupid one: in the Gospels, there’s no detail about the wise men from the East. It’s not clear how many of them there were, (3 gifts are mentioned but it doesn’t say that they were presented by 3 people), and they certainly aren’t named, (Melchior, Caspar and Balthazar are names made up centuries later but they’re not in the Bible). So much for inerrant accuracy.

December temperatures in Israel run on average between highs around seventy degrees fahrenheit and lows around fifty.

Jesus’ birth would to have happened in what we now call December, more likely it was in March, (if at all).

That's why the Inn was full.

If the Republicans were in control, they would have interrupted travel to keep people from reaching their destination, in order to interfere with the census.
