Christianity co-opted -- a euphemistic diction for "stole outright" -- this cycle-of-renewal holiday from the pagan world. Churches were built on sites of pagan temples.

The remainder of your post discusses what happened in secret, as if somehow you know or anyone else knows what transpired in those times. There are no reliable documents to any of your assertions. For that matter, there is no reliable document on the life of Jesus of Galilee.

Most of your post, Rev, covers territory after Christianity began to take hold and does not eclipse my original claim.

The early Christians ripped the pagans off, pure and simple.
