Jehovah's Witnesses do not have doubts that Jesus was born. In fact, they are just as thankful he was born as the next person. They dont celebrate his birth, because his death holds more signifigance.
Luke chapter 22 verses 19 through 20 gives clear meaning that Jesus was saying to celebrate his death, not his birth. His blood really saved man, not his birth.
This question was no doubt asked on the bases that Jehovah's Witnesses do no celebrate Christmas. Contact local witnesses for more information about why they dont celebrate christmas or Jesus' birth.

Do Jehovah's Witness believe in abortions or birth control?
Jehovah's Witnesses have no prohibition against the use of birth control. They would, however, object to a method of birth control that resulted in the destruction of an already fertilzed egg since they believe life begins at conception and that this would violate a respect for the sanctity of life.If they so desire. The Awake magazine, printed by Jehovah's Witnesses, of 22nd February 1993 says''Does the Bible condemn birth control? No, it does not. The choice is left with the couple. If a married couple decides to practice birth control, their choice of contraceptives is a personal matter. However, the method of birth control a Christian couple chooses should be governed by a respect for the sanctity of life. Since the Bible indicates that a person's life begins at conception, Christians would avoid contraceptive methods that abort, or end the life of, the developing child.''

Why don't jahovah's witnesses celebrate Christmas?
Jehovah's Witnesses don't celebrate Christmas because they believe it has pagan origins. They believe the date of 25th of December was in fact the adoption from ancient Roman celebrations. M'Clintock and Strong's Cyclopœdia : "The observance of Christmas is not of divine appointment, nor is it of N[ew] T[estament] origin. The day of Christ's birth cannot be ascertained from the N[ew] T[estament], or, indeed, from any other source. ...light and . . . the day devoted to the invincible sun, as well as the day after the Saturnalia, was adopted by the church as Christmas, the nativity of Christ, to counteract the effects of these festivals."
