Quote:
In order to get converts, Christians basically stole other people's holy days. Christmas was a celebration of the winter solstice. Easter was the rites of... uh... Belltaine? Something to that effect. It was basically a time to worship the goddess of fertility to the Celts. Halloween and All Saint's Day were originally Samhain. History proves that Jesus of Nazareth was born in the spring.

Do you think the date or the meaning behind the ceremonies is what's important?
There's nowhere I can't reach.
