"To conclude, in light of the tremendous volume of evidence that is there for anyone interesting in taking the time to read it, the underlying question of whether or not Christianity is simply the heir of pagan beliefs prevalent at the time of its development, is not a question that can simply be ignored by any Christian when pondering the origins of his/her faith.

How can there possibly be any evidence against a religion meant to be taken on faith ("Blessed are those that have seen more blessed are those that have not"). So what if they tuned it to fit in with pagan time tables. The actual date makes no difference at all.

The Romans were so afraid of it before their empire crashed out they adopted it themselves.

Zombies live in the past a Christian is supposed to live in the here and now the pondering, hair-pulling and teeth gnashing is left to the buddhists.
