Sometimes Stars Leave Behind Great Mysteries
December brings to mind not only snow, but celebrations, mistletoe, lights, gifts, and a host of memories wrapped around the experiences associated with Christmas. Many often forget the spirit of these celebrations. Jesus Christ not only made his mark on the history of human civilization, he also left behind an influential religion of the mind, containing mysteries hidden inside the depths of Christianity whose answers still await discovery. Maybe, a more real Jesus will give us a better appreciation of his miraculous birth. Scholars are still discovering answers that only hint at the answers waiting in the ruins of ancient Rome.
