Do you want to learn the true origin of Easter? Oh come on you know you do!

Wherever Christian worship of Jesus and Pagan worship of Attis were active in the same geographical area in ancient times, Christians "used to celebrate the death and resurrection of Jesus on the same date; and pagans and Christians used to quarrel bitterly about which of their gods was the true prototype and which the imitation."

Many religious historians believe that the death and resurrection legends were first associated with Attis, many centuries before the birth of Jesus. They were simply grafted onto stories of Jesus' life in order to make Christian theology more acceptable to Pagans. Others suggest that many of the events in Jesus' life that were recorded in the gospels were lifted from the life of Krishna, the second person of the Hindu Trinity. Ancient Christians had an alternative explanation; they claimed that Satan had created counterfeit deities in advance of the coming of Christ in order to confuse humanity. 4 Modern-day Christians generally regard the Attis legend as being a Pagan myth of little value. They regard Jesus' death and resurrection account as being true, and unrelated to the earlier tradition.

I just love how far Christians are willing to stretch the realm of possibilities to make it conform to their belief system.

Satan had created counterfeit deities in advance of the coming of Christ in order to confuse humanity. Oh that is fucking hilarious! That ranks up their with the belief that God scattered the fossils of prehistoric animals to make people doubt the story of Creation just to sort out the true believers.

No wonder Christians are the favorite target of scam artists.
