Hier de originele video:

In deze video beantwoord ik de claims dat het Christelijke Kerstfeest bij de Mithrascultus vandaan komt en dat de kerstboom een oerheidens symbool is. Ook ga ik in op Jeremia 10.
Dit is de eerste keer dat ik heb geprobeerd de effecten live te doen. Dit geeft op de video soms een vertraging.
