The Catholic Church makes tradition above or equal to Scripture, but in actuality many of its traditions actually stem from pagan sun worship. Its teachings, beliefs and practices come from Mithraism—a form of paganism that existed in Babylonian times.

he Papacy claims that its system of worship has been handed down through tradition. They are absolutely correct. But these are not the teachings of Jesus, but rather the traditions of Babylon.
Roman Catholic doctrines such as infant baptism, sprinkling during baptism, teachings on death and immortality, tonsured and celibate priests with power over the dead, prayers to the dead and to relics, repetitive prayers with the use of beads, doctrines on forgiveness of sins, teachings on hell, the mass, and Sunday worship are doctrines actually derived directly from ancient Babylon, not the Bible.

Interesting.

Similarly one might go several steps back and say that Christianity pulled its concept of the Holy Trinity from Hinduism, which pre-dates Christianity by some 2,000 years.
Contrary to popular belief in the West, Hindus believe there is one supreme being with many (millions of) manifestations on Earth.

I believe that is one of the reason Martin Luther split from the Church.

I can't believe that anyone still believes that Christianity was stolen from pagan religions. Those silly stories have been soundly debunked.
