Babylonian BS: Part 6 - Easter

This video examines the origins of Easter, addressing claims by Alexander Hislop that the holiday is rooted in Babylonian traditions. We reference scholars like Dr. Samuele Bacchiocchi and Dr. Thomas Finn to trace Easter's beginnings to the Jewish Passover and early Christian practices. We also cover the Quartodeciman controversy and evaluate the historical use of eggs, challenging the notion that these traditions have pagan origins. Our analysis provides a clear view of how Easter evolved from its early Christian and Jewish contexts to its current form.
