Not Christian , though , but Pagan The Celt Christians in this country kept some of the Pagan traditions of our ancestors even though they had converted to Christianity But Thor and Woden were not Celtic were they ? Surely they were Norse ?

Surely they were Norse ? Yea the Celtic version of Thor was Taranis . Similar kind of belief system and Pagan worship though. Halloween is a Celtic Pagan tradition which we have kept along with many others

Halloween is a Celtic Pagan tradition which we have kept along with many others Yes I knew that , it's a fascinating subject , yuletide is also a tradition we celebrate to this day , although it has been interwoven with Christmas , not a lot of people know that !

Seems like they have found some Coptic writing, where Jesus mentions his wife. If true,then we have been fed a load of bollocks for the past 2000 yrs.
