    What, that’s not common knowledge?

    Btw, christmas was stolen from Yule. And some stories in the old testament are from Gilgamesh and Atrahasis Epos, like Mose’ abandonement in a reed basket as an example.

    Literally all beings and concepts in christianity have a pagan origin. Even ancient YHWH/Yahweh/Jehovah/Tetragrammaton (God) goes probably back to El.

    But i guess that’s natural, concepts like an underworld are in above epics too, those sorts of stories developed over civilizations.

      Like 4/5 of the Bible isn’t common knowledge to most Christians. To say nothing of the actual history of Christianity.
