I'm always researching my friend. From what I understand, that theory (no crucifixion) has been pretty well refuted and has fallen out of favor. Thought you might have something I missed. To the birthday point. The bible never says anything about that. Dec 25 is catholic dogma, placing Jesus birthday on a pagan holiday, (winter solstice?) to make it more palatable to them. (Sigh) And I wish that more was known about his early years, but I can only infer that since nothing is known, aside from a few tidbits from the bible, that he lived a relatively quiet life.
