chronology

There seems to be a growing viewpoint that Christ could have been born on December 25. Offhand, any day would have a one out of 365.25 chance of being correct, but is there enough evidence to suggest December 25 has more going for it than other days of the year, as per this article:

What is your best guess as to when Jesus was born? We know when he began his ministry, he was ABOUT 30 (If Luke knew his exact age, he would not have used the word “about,” Luke 3:23).

Some of us go with a 30 AD crucifixion - resurrection date, I am a 33 AD man myself. But that is a different issue.

There has been some volleying around in recent years on this issue. Has your opinion changed? When did Herod the Great really die?
