Who wants to break it to him that Jesus wasn't born in December?

He's clearly not ready for "Jesus wasn't born" but maybe we can get him to accept:

Luke 2:8-12
8 And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night. 
9 An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. 
10 But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. 
11 Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord. 
12 This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger.”

Shepherds don't watch over their flocks at night in December. They do that in the Spring when lambs are being born.

Jesus = Lamb of God = Sacrifice

See how that works?

Hmmm... What if Jesus was literally a sheep? 🤔
