Is Christianity really rooted in paganistic sun worship? Yes it is, or not necessary but deffinetly from pagan traditions. Christian holydays like eastern and christmas all come from pagan traditions. Christianity wasn't ment to be what it is today it's been corrupted by the chruch. The chruch ( vatican) deleted chapters and altered chapters from the bible, not to mention the gruelsome things they did in history. And a lot more. There are manny examples and a lot of evidence if you are willing to do research, but eventually everybody will believe what they want to believe. But i'll give you one about sunworship since that what you ask. Every religion has it's holy day Jews have the sabbath on saturday. Muslims have this on friday. And Christians? Yup sunday : Sunday comes from Old English “Sunnandæg," which is derived from a Germanic interpretation of the Latin dies solis, "sun's day." Germanic and Norse mythology personify the sun as a goddess named Sunna or Sól. It is evident that Christianity, regardless of your own faith, takes influence from many myths before the time of Jesus. Upon my recent reading of the history of Christianity, it came to my attention that early Christianity had placed a lot of significance to the worship of the sun, thanks to Emperor Constantine, the pagan Christian. Constantine ruled between AD 306 and 337, his predecessor being his father, Constantius I. Constantine is often referred to as the first Christian Roman Emperor, and though he did convert on his deathbed, dying on Pentecost in 337, and baptised by Bishop Eusebius of Caesarea, the evidence would suggest otherwise. Further on that note, Eusebius was an Arian, and Constantine seems to have veered towards Arianism later on in his life. Arianism was a non-trinitarian belief, believing that the Son is distinct from God, being subordinate to him, yet also being God. Some hardcore Arians believed the Son to be unlike the Father while some believed he was merely like the Father, but not the Father. The Council condemned Arianism as heresy in AD 325 when Constantine was in power, but it did survive. Constantine put the ongoing persecution of Christians to a halt, built many churches, he issued the Edict of Milan in AD 313 alongside Emperor Licinius (Licinius being Emperor of the East, Constantine being West) which granted religious toleration and in AD 315, Constantine abolished crucifixion. These are many of the reasons why Constantine is considered Christian. However, his ongoing worship of the Sun would suggest otherwise. We all know that Jesus was certainly not truly born on the 25th of December. Christian leaders chose this date in AD 336, following Constantine’s interfaith approach to Christianity, as the 25th of December was the Roman feast of the birth of Sol Invictus, or in other words, the feast of the Unconquered Sun. Prior to this, in AD 321, Constantine declared Sunday as the legal Sabbath, Sunday, of course, being the day of the Sun. Furthermore, if you take a glance at the coin of Constantine These Roman coins never carried Christian symbols, but images of the sun, for one, but also Mars and the God of War. Here we have the coin of Constantine depicting the Sol Invictus. In the Roman Empire, coins were practically state propaganda, and so it explains a lot about Constantine considering these coins never carried Christian imagery. Also, take a glance at the original Column of Constantine: Constantine set up this statue in AD 330 which depicts himself in the likeness of Apollo, wearing a sun crown. The column had pagan images covering it, also with some Christian symbolism. What is more interesting is the likeness of Jesus to that of the Sun God. Firstly, his twelve apostles are seen by some to resemble the twelve zodiac constellations. Secondly, many of the photos of Jesus in which he has a halo as seen below has similarities to a parhelion or a ‘mock sun’ or ‘sun dog’, which consists of bright spots appearing on either side of the sun, also seen below. I found it extremely interesting that there are so many parallels between the two and felt the need to share this. If you read my poetry, you will notice I allude to many different religions as this is a topic I thoroughly enjoy, I hope to do more articles like this in the future. 3 Likes
