I find it very interesting that you would suggest that May 1 hold such symbolism. The belief that May 1 is the date for symbolic rebirth is a pagan belief, rooted in ancient NON-CHRISTIAN tradition. It interests me that you would believe that God would choose a pagan date for such an important CHRISTIAN event.
