[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Fascinating! How does this fit in with the knowledge that Christian religious holidays were set to coincide with already existing Pagan holidays? e.g., Christmas is set right after the winter solstice, the Yuletide festival, when days were just starting to get longer again, and Easter, whose date changes yearly, is the 1st Sunday, after the first full moon, after the vernal equinox. Also, it's interesting that science is being used as a method to verify the Crucifixion. Faith, not science, is the basis of religion. Faith is required to believe in the resurrection, which defies science.[/quote] The timing of Pascha is convoluted, but has nothing to do with pagan holidays. https://www.orthodoxwitness.org/how-the-date-of-pascha-is-determined/ [/quote]
