I have a question. There is a section in my book of scripture that states that the day before Jesus's birth there would be no darkness. Is there a name/explanation for such an event?
At the poles themselves, the sun only rises once and sets once, each year. During the six months when the sun is above the horizon at the poles, the sun spends the days constantly moving around the horizon, reaching its highest circuit of the sky at the summer solstice.

moonman239 said:Yeah, I looked at that article. I do have to mention that we're talking about an event that happened in the Americas.
yaang said:What about Canada and Alaska ? Aren't they considered to be a part of Americas ?
jarednjames said:No such event has ever happened in the Americas.
moonman239 said:I guess it could be that whoever wrote that lived in Alaska.

darkside00 said:Perhaps if the poles shift to somewhere else on the world, this midnight sun would start to happen there...
darkside00 said:There so close, if the mag/geo pole shifts, one will follow the other.
darkside00 said:or poles follow Earth's rotation
Magnetic poles
Planetary magnetic poles are defined analogously to the Earth's magnetic poles: they are the locations on the planet's surface at which the planet's magnetic field lines are vertical. The direction of the field determines whether the pole is a magnetic north or south pole, exactly as on Earth. The Earth's magnetic axis is approximately aligned with its rotational axis, meaning that the magnetic poles are relatively close to the geographic poles. However, this is not necessarily the case for other planets; the magnetic axis of Uranus, for example, is inclined by as much as 60°.
A_Sabra said:Correct me if I'm wrong, but did you just say Jesus was born in the Americas?
Sam Nanti said:Could a massive solar flare cause enough light to be shown that it wouldn't be dark at night?
jarednjames said:The only way for something like that to happen is for something to reflect the light back at us (like the moon does).
Sam Nanti said:Which rules out a massive asteroid or meteoroid passing close enough to reflect back light for so that long of time, I guess, too.
Chronos said:Why assume this is a literal account? Sounds allegorical to me. Parables were a staple of sayings attributed to jesus. The bible is not a reknowned source of scientific knowledge.
Jjjxy said:Your 'scripture and science' is like 'matter and energy' I guess. One may FEEL the other but not when positions are reversed.
jarednjames said:I suppose it could be taken as "the next saviour will be born in the Americas".
Darkness-Free Day is a phenomenon where there is no darkness for 24 hours, meaning the sun does not set and the sky remains bright throughout the day. This event is believed to have occurred during the birth of Jesus Christ.
There is no scientific evidence to support the occurrence of Darkness-Free Day. It is primarily a religious belief and is not recognized by the scientific community.
According to the Bible, Darkness-Free Day occurred during the birth of Jesus Christ, which is believed to be on December 25th. However, there is no way to determine the exact date of this event.
For Christians, Darkness-Free Day is seen as a sign of the birth of Jesus Christ and is considered a miraculous event. It is also believed to symbolize the light and hope that Jesus brings to the world.
There is no way to predict or determine if Darkness-Free Day will occur again. It is solely based on religious beliefs and is not a scientifically proven event.
