>>It is entirely possible that the preserving of their dead meant that they simply weren’t afraid of death.<<

It's entirely possible the practice was taken from the occult and Babylonian paganism as much of Catholicism is.

It’s entirely possible there’s no basis for claiming a Babylonian source for Roman Christianity.

We’ve gone through this before.

Pascha is the Italian, French, Spanish word for Easter. It doesn’t have to do with Astarte, Isis, etc.

It has to do with Passover and the events leading up to and including Christ’s death, burial, and resurrection.

By the way, isn’t there a book of ROMANS in the bible? They were on 7 hills, then, just as now. What in the world was Paul thinking....building up the whore of Babylon? /sarc
