It's for rediff and all others who don't know about it-- It's CHRISTMAS AND NOT X'Mas. It's called Christmas as Jesus Christ was born on that day. Pl. be informed about the same - we should wish as Merry/Happy Christmas and while writing we should write Christmas and not X'Mas. Thanks.
It is really shameful for rediff.com for spreading such type of wrong informations through rediff.com saying that Christ was 7 years old when the Christianity spreaded in India etc. etc. It is a historical fact that The Death of Christ has divided the History into 2 i.e. A.D. (After Death) & B.C. (Before Christ). Afterthe Death of Christ the Christian Era has started from 1. I don't think this has to be taught again this type of people. Using 'Mr. Jesus' and 'St. Thomas the myth' all not the correct way I think. Pl note, St. Thomas came to India in A.D. 52 i.e. after death of Christ (52 years). It is a hostorcal fact of Kerala History. He was the first navigator landed in India but not for business but for the evangelization of good news. The second navigator landed in India was Vasco De Gama, a Portughese Merchant, landed in Calicut (Kozhikode) port in the year A.D. 1498 who is known as the FIRST NAVIGATOR OF INDIA. This is for yr information pl.
