Read a book and stfu

Bias books

*bias books*

dont just read one account

Aka Catholic scholars

That is not an argument

The pagan hero -> saint thing is legit

you need citations

The counsel of nicea was about making a sect of Christianity Heretical

That was what converted Emperor Constantine

Saints are people who ahieve greatly through divine intervention is the generally accepted simple-definition. Pagans and non-believers can become saints

*"That which is presented without evidence can be denied with the same"*

And yet you have provided nothing for your claim <:think_woke:378717098681171988>

Some easy reading for you

<:deus_vult:382980746727522305> Heretic

But everything from christs *birthday* to many of the stories and saints were pagan in origination

lol the calendar of the church?

christ's birthday was moved

What are you even arguing about

and it's a feast-day not a birthday

We are talking about mutual consenting marriages

The winter solstice is a pretty universal constant in religions

Dont worry the jewish people did similar as well. Thats why much older religions are parrotted in modern ones

@Goblin_Slayer_Floki Christmas is a feast-day not a birthday

It makes for easier conversions

Christian feast days were also called Holy-days...which we now call Holidays

Not originally

I just said that

St Patrick's day! yay

It was changed as this reality came to light. So again. Things were taken. Yes some adjusted later but still taken all the same :)

you are misconscruing the reasons

Lol you dont think it was for easier converting of pagans while streamlining the scriptures?

the church legitimised the divine interventions of the pagan saints as divine interventions, and they moved feast-days to make easter less jumpled up (Christ's original feast day was nearer to summer than winter)

You realize the *resurrection* story has grounds in 4 other far older religions?

Just jumping around

throwing random points

The hero's story is a common story

Egyptian, Zoastrian, Hindu, cant remember the fourth I think roman/greco

Romulas is a misnomer

yes, and the world is held up by 4 dwarfs. There are 7 billion humans and uncountable dead humans, things have been done before
