I wouldve loved Robin to explain the confusion of Chrstmas. "we went from the virgin birth, emacualnt conception, to Jerry Garcia in a red flannel suit with midget slaves. how did that happen?"
Can't say there's all that much confusion with Christmas since Santa Claus is based off of Saint Nicholas, an actual saint who was known for secret gift giving.
It comes from Pagans who worshiped the Rabbit, as did most Holidays. People know this but do it every year and say OH WE'RE DOING IT FOR THE CHILDREN!! Doing what exactly? lol
Jeremy Freeman rabbits weren’t worshiped. The eggs and rabbits are associated with the changing of seasons which was a big deal considering we associate gods and goddesses with certain seasons. It is pagan however that part is true.
It is about the fertility goddess ASTOR and the bringing in of other beliefs as well.. The whole passover .good friday and everything else is also borrowed from pagan celebrations. The ressurection was tken from other like deity worship stories that already existed prior to the jesus story being written and created.. All one needs to do is do a little bit of historical studying and reading..not from just one source or from a religions point..but from nuetral and ummnbias historical point's that include all points of history..anc religions of all points and beliefs. Ppl might be amazed and what they might learn
