Semiramis declared that her son, Tammuz, was in actuality the return or rebirth of her husband, Nimrod. this is where reincarnation was born. And since Tammuz was born on the day corresponding to December 25, this day was highly honored and recognized by Nimrod's supporters. Note, therefore, that this date (December 25) was observed in honor of the birth of Tammuz long before Christianity existed, and that it was not until many centuries later this pagan custom was "Christianized" as being the birthday of Christ (or Christmas day). "It can be stated they worship another Jesus" Nimrod's followers began to also worship Semiramis. And her son Tammuz was worshipped as well. Semiramis was revered by the people and was viewed by many as a priestess and goddess. She soon became known as "the queen of heaven." Thus began the awful practice of exalting human deities. These false beliefs have led up to the many different forms of idolatry that are still practiced by different people today. Yes, it was through the introduction of these satanic evils and the many sacrilegious practices of ancient Babylon that witchcraft, priestcraft, spiritualism, and other forms of paganism were born. On the 25th of December, is "The birthday of the unconquerable Sun" (Natalis Solis Invicti). The ancient pagans believed that the sun would die during the winter solstice and then rise again from death as the solstice ended and the days of light began to lengthen, with the sun climbing higher in the sky, regaining its dominance. December 25 was also regarded as the birth date of the Persian/Iranian mystery god Mithras, the Sun of Righteousness, the god of light, the Grand Deliverer. The Sun God Mithras was a popular deity in the Old Roman Empire, whose cult penetrated the Roman world in the first century B.C. Oh, yes, and note this; "The birthday of the unconquerable Sun" ... And this was also the excuse to change the day of Rest detailed in the Bible, Saturday, to Sun-day. And by all means, when you go to worship the son of god on Sun-day, be sure to go for a Sun-rise service! Yeah! Go Tammuz!

Excellent post! Here is a post I had just made, with a link that may interest you as well. I really did enjoy your link, which provides many good points, though there is one statement in there I would like to dispute. The word "Christianity" is not in itself, any where to be found in the Bible, but the word "Christian" is, though it seems to indicate a negative connotation. This word was used to describe followers of Jesus, and was never used by one of the to describe themselves. http://freedom4um.com/cgi-bin/readart.cgi?ArtNum=41282&Disp=48#C48
that's because it is.

You have some excellent links. I do not believe that I have seen you on the forum before, but then I am a fairly new member. I do know that I hope you post more often, I truly enjoy your perspective, and your resources. When it comes to religion, I am very opinionated, but I am definitely NOT closed minded. If someone has an INTELLIGENT point, I am always very willing to listen, and learn, and at the very least acknowledge that their point has merit. Please feel free to ping me whenever you are making posts involving religion, especially the history of religion.
Christos is Greek word that translates into English as anointed. No special 'pagan' meaning involved. The Persian king Cyrus was also called 'Christ' in (Isaiah 44:24, 26–45:3, 13).
