God exists independently of time. Talking about things linearly makes no sense, the instant we are born is occurring 'at the same time' as when we die. Predestination is self-contradicting in Christian theology because there is no 'pre'. I.E. The term is contradictory but the concept is a given
"factual" used in the loosest sense of the word. Drawing parallels like "born on December 25th" is such a lowbrow tactic used by people trying to discredit Christianity. The celebration of Christmas is rooted entirely in pagan culture.
