well, it is pretty obvious that alot of the bible was streamlined to be more acceptable to the pagans (astrology reference) such as the changing of Christmas to the Pagan holiday date, and while not only obvious, it is documented as well. Hell, Voodoo is a combination of african religions and Christianity, in order to at least partially convert the "heathens".

Christianity has even gone as far as taking polytheistic religions and comparing the saints to the lesser Gods in order to make the religion more accessible and easier to assimilate into.

I don't blame the religion though, I blame the insane people that were so desperate to convert the unbelievers that they would go as far as to "adapt" their religion and make it more appealing. This is why Christians ain't usually taken seriously when they talk about the bible being 100% true.
I have done a lot of research on what you're talking about and I won't try to explain it all here. But basically here's how it goes. I'll probably have to repeat this numerous times in this forum but here goes.

What you're talking about were things all performed by the roman catholic church. The Roman catholic church is not a Christian church. Shortly after the flood The sons of Noah ( Shem ham and jape th) had descendent's and began to repopulate the earth. The first began in the area of the bible lands in the land of ancient Babylon. One of the descendent's was a man named nimrod whose name meant mighty hunter before the Lord. From what we know about Nimrod, he was a very evil man. He is responsible for building the original Babylon and he was a vicious king and conquerer who deified himself and made himself a God. But that's not all. There is confusion just like there are in all mystery cults but basically what happened was he had this wife named Semiramis also called Ishtar or Astarte etc. Basically through a series of events which would take a time to explain Nimrod and Semiramis deified themselves and called themselves Gods and took advantage of the prophecy that had been given of the messiah to the sons of Adam and eve and deceived people and tried to say that he was the "one" . and when Nimrod died she took advantage of this and established her self among the heathen as the "mother of the Gods" . Her alleged son also became deified but her status remained above both of them. This mystery cult outlived far longer than Babylon ever did (in fact it still lives on today). In fact through various hidden methods such as symbolic representations and morphing of names and such this mystery religion spread throughout the whole earth. All of the ancient Gods names you may be familiar with from Greece, rome, egypt, India, Iceland, Eourope, Africa, even as far as places like south america and and china and native American cultures it can be traced to and are rooted in the same Babylonian mystery religion. Also the idol God baal that caused Israel to stumble is none other than nimrod, and can be traced back to the Babylonian mystery religion also.

Now when Christianity came along, there was a great falling away shortly after the apostles died and in fact was started to grow long before that. Soon the church was full of apostasy and had been infiltrated by such as the false Egyptian church, itself traced back to babylon, hid behind a false veil of Christianity.

When the Christianity reached Rome, basically what happened was the church leaders who were far compromised already, spread a door wide open for paganism. On the surface, it looked like the church had grown in popularity overnight, but in reality the old temples had been merely refurnished to give the allusion of a Christian theme. A temple which used to be to dionysus would read something like " cathedral of st. dionysus" and such like. In reality paganism had never been abolished but only absorbed into the church. As time when on the
mystery religion working in secret would do everything it could to change the doctrine and rituals and symbolism and everything in the church to be in fact one and the same of the babylonian religion, with the false appearance of Christianity. The same is true to this day. The mystery of iniquity working through the false church pretty much rules the world, and not only established the American government, but continues to rule America and deceive you all and the whole world to this day. And the truth is, there are probably only a handful of Christians on the earth right now.


And all of this is why in the book of revelation it says :

8And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.

24And in her was found the blood of prophets, and of saints, and of all that were slain upon the earth.
