It never ceases to puzzle me that people use the existence of tales in other cultures as evidence against things written in the Bible. Resting on the belief that God is the Creator and all things come from him .... why wouldn't other cultures have those "stories"? Mayhap they didn't just make them up.[/B][/QUOTE]
Because "christians" like to say they are the ONLY ones to be saved.. IF they were so willing to adopt other culture's beliefs into Christianity then they should make no pretenses about it and would not be so judgemental about the cultures whose beliefs they just incorporated...
Christmas coincides with the winter solstace celebration, what a coincidence.. Christmas trees taken from Germanic tribes. Churches placed at existing places of worship.. Christianity is not so much about saving people as it is getting more converts.
