Sources

Okay, so where are the sources? The Spanish article is a stub. The Italian article looks like a translation of this article. None of them have sources. Sources, sources, who has the sources?Arch O. La ^{Grigory Deepdelver} 17:34, 29 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Magellan

Magellan wasn't spanish he was a portuguese at the service of the spanish crown. I corrected it but I think it makes no sense in saying Portuguese/Spanish Explorer, just explorer would be better. Cláudio Valente 20:37, 4 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Merge

No - bad idea. The other article is on a feast day. Also you did not tag the other article which you actually want to mergre.

Moving the title was also a bad idea - Christ child is more appropriate for this topic. Johnbod 12:15, 28 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

References in Popular Culture (hey you in back, shut up)

Expanding somewhat on the fables people came up with about baby J (kinda reminds you of those retarded Superbaby comics, eh?), I think it's worthwhile to point out how, when most people reference "Baby Jesus" they're saying something along the lines of "(sin) makes Baby Jesus cry!" as if he's still a baby.. the only other time people talk about the christ child is the nativity thing, where the baby Jesus is often represented in plays by a doll. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.72.21.221 (talk) 01:04, 14 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Citation for this legend?

"Some legends relate that these events rather worried the other children's parents, who forbade them to play with Jesus. Another legend relates that once, when the child Jesus arrived in the town plaza to play, parents quickly hid their children in a large kiln-oven for shelter. The child Jesus, naturally well aware of this, inquired about his playmates' whereabouts and was told all the children had left. When he asked what the noise coming from the large oven was he was told that pigs were being cooked. Jesus left and when the parents opened the oven doors, they found (according to which version of the story one heard) either uncooked squealing piglets or roasted children."

One wonders exactly when/why/to whom this would ever have been considered legitimate, given that the Jews of Jesus' time were rather unlikely to be cooking pork. -99.61.189.200 (talk) 00:45, 4 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
