The Internet Took Ann Coulter Back to Sunday School After She Made This Huge Error About the Nativity Story | 22 Words

It's the holiday season, which means one thing – it's prime Nativity scene time.

The Nativity, or the birth of Jesus Christ, is as closely associated with Christmas as Christmas trees and tinsel. In fact, it's even more, because what is Christmas, if not a celebration of the Birth of Christ?

In fact, the very word "Christmas" comes from the phrase, Mass of Christ, and the first Christ Mass – or Christmas – was celebrated in 366 by the Roman Emperor Constantine, the first Christian Roman Emperor.
If the name Constantine rings a bell, it should, because he's the guy who consolidated the books of the Bible and helped settle some of the tenets of Christianity, as they were.
While Jesus certainly wasn't born on December 25, the date of his birth was placed there because there were two other Roman festivals already present at the time – "Saturnalia" and "Dies Natalis Solis Invicti," or the day of the unconquered sun.

In any event, Christmas soon became one of the biggest holidays in the world, and everyone knew the story behind it, which is described in the gospels of Luke and Matthew.
In the gospels, Mary became pregnant by the Holy Spirit, a fact which distressed her husband Joseph, who planned to divorce her.

Before he could do so, he was visited in a dream by an angel who told him Jesus was the child of God who would save people from their sins. Jesus was then born in Bethlehem under the reign of Herod the Great, a brilliant, but cruel king.

After the birth, three Wise Men came to Herod, saying they'd seen a star which told them the King of the Jews had been born. Crafty Herod told the Wise Men to go to Bethlehem, ostensibly to find the anointed child so he could worship him too. In reality, he intended to kill the child that would threaten his reign.

The Wise Men found the Holy Family and gave them gifts and spices, but did not return to Herod because an angel warned them of his cruelty. Joseph was also warned by an angel to flee with his family to Egypt, which he did.

After Herod died, the Holy family went to Nazareth in Galilee. Of course, by this time, Herod had long slaughtered all male children under the age of two in Bethlehem.
One of the most dramatic passages in this story is where the Holy family flees to Egypt to escape persecution. Another way of saying this is they take refugee in Egypt, and by doing so, become refugees.
In fact, the UN defines refugee as:
Someone who has been forced to flee his or her country because of persecution, war, or violence. A refugee has a well-founded fear of persecution for reasons of race, religion, nationality, political opinion or membership in a particular social group. Most likely, they cannot return home or are afraid to do so. War and ethnic, tribal and religious violence are leading causes of refugees fleeing their countries.
One person, however, didn't think so. Conservative personality Ann Coulter took to Twitter to clapback against what she thought was an exceedingly stupid error by a common Twitter pleb.
Of course, she was wrong, and Twitter was quick to let her have it.
One Twitter personality sought to help Coulter by pointing out that Egypt and Judea were the same country, but others were quick to point out this assertion also needed a deeper look. Even more continued taking Coulter to task. When it was all said and done, one Twitterati had a final note: Let that be a lesson to you, Ann Coulter. Even plebs can read the Bible.
