    false. birth is not instantaneous, so there is no one discrete time of birth.

    So ignore time completely for when someone leaves the womb? Cause to a certain dictionary, birth is defined as: "the emergence of a new individual from the body of its parent" That being Merriam-Webster Dictionary

    Is it the moment the head first comes out or the moment the baby is fully out?

    What if someone started being born on 31st December 11:50 and finished being born on 1st January? Would they have two birthdays and birth years?

    That must be a lie.

    The glorious leader said that he was not ‘born’ but instead ‘introduced’ to the world.

    Or was he????

    According to Wikipedia:

    “North Korean authorities and state-run media have stated that Kim Jong Un was born on 8 January 1982.[4] South Korean intelligence officials believe that the actual date is a year later, in 1983.[5] The US government lists his birth year as 1984, based on the passport he used while studying in Switzerland.[6] Ko Yong Suk, Kim's aunt who defected to the United States in 1998, also claimed the 1984 birthdate, saying Kim was the same age as her own son who was a playmate from a young age.[7] It is thought that Kim's official birth year was changed for symbolic reasons; 1982 marked the seventieth birthday of his grandfather Kim Il Sung, and forty years after the official birth of his father Kim Jong Il.[8]”

    Regardless, there is one true day that he was born on, and that would be his birthday
