"
When these terms were introduced, they were introduced in a culture that understood them." Yes, they were introduced to a deeply pagan world that worshipped Ishtar/Semiramis, the Queen of Heaven, just as Isaiah said. They also made "hot cross buns" in honor of Tammuz.

Oh. All righty then. Thank you for sharing.
Can you tell me when calling Mary the Queen of Heaven became a usual Catholic thing, or, for that matter, when hot cross buns came into general use?
The first thing my piano teacher taught me to play when I was 6 was "Hot Cross Buns." She was Protestant. So was I.
