Even I agreed with him. Not a first, but not far from it.

He makes you think and will afford consideration to your point of view as well..

I canโ€™t answer for others but perhaps its in how he supports it?? How he words it ...starts to support while Sabotaging it at the same time???

Alicia is correct for once. Ishtar was the Babylonian Goddess of Spring, also known as Inanna, and Astarte. This mythical being became the basis for the Greek and Roman Aphrodite and Venus. Ishtar was also the festival day of the resurrection of Tammuz, who was supposedly the product of a virgin birth by Isis/Ishtar/Astarte. (You'll never guess when Tammuz' birthday was celebrated.......December 25th.) This Babylonian cult, centuries later, morphed into the worship of Mithra; simply another name for Tammuz/Osiris/Mithra.
During the 4th century AD, the worship of Mithra was serious competition for Christianity. During the Nicene Council of 325 AD, the Emperor Constantine declared that from now on, Easter was a Christian holiday celebrating the resurrection of Jesus, rather than that of Tammuz/Osiris/Mithra. (Christmas, originally the birthday of Tammuz/Osiris/Mithra, was also celebrated for the first time on December 25th as the birth of Jesus in 336 AD, during the reign of Constantine).
The only mention of Easter in the Bible is in the Book of Acts, and it has nothing to do with Christianity.

All of the traditions surrounding both Easter and Christmas are pagan in nature and have their origins millennia before the birth and ministry of Jesus.
Alicia is correct for once. Ishtar was the Babylon... (show quote)


As you have pointed out before, Christians SHOULD be celebrating Passover, not Easter. It is undeniable that in order to appeal to a many gods population, the traditions of men were wrongly incorporated into the tenets of Christianity. The "narrow path" was indeed difficult to walk, and now, difficult to admit and correct. All this starkly illustrates the difference between "religion", and faith.

He noticed that you were able to read correctly. There is plenty to fight about, but when there is just an observation, take the comment for what it is.

For those with reading comprehension issues, here is Rumitoids's last paragraph.

{The t***h of the resurrection of Jesus is in the disparate views freely expressed in the NT. Why allow it, if your purpose is to make a case for this new "Jewish cult"? "Get your story straight." But they did not. They allowed the testimonies as is, no matter possible conflictions. Who would be so openly honest unless utterly confident in the fact of his resurrection? The different views of what happened are common in eyewitness testimony. Allowing it instead of trying to make a coordinated and consistent statement of events lends to its veracity.}

Thank you.
