This every 2,000 year reoccurring phenomenon was the very first thought that I had, too. It was even being discussed and referred to by so many at the time as its being the Star of Bethlehem. So much so by so many, and with so few if any solid reasons given not to accept it, that they appeared to have finally settled the debates and arguments to the satisfaction of all. However, I suppose mystery is what keeps the magic and wonder of Christmas alive and well.
