Unfortunately most Christians I know of already understand that Easter is grounded in Paganism, and therefore most probably won't bother to look at it. If only they would absorb our propaganda like they want us to do with theirs.
Yes mad - however it's useful to have this information out there to refer people to. If it gets just one person to question, it was worth doing.
And it also gets people to investigate truthbeknown.com. (raising $$$ for Acharya's 'Church of Astrotheology'.)

It's planting seeds...
Have you noticed the disproportionate number of theist to non-theist videos there are on YT? All of the theist stuff is getting one star and the non-theist, 4 or 5 stars.
I hate to gloat (well, not really) but the theist's 'evidence' is laughable. I sort of feel sorry for them a little bit (just a little) as they HAVE NOTHING! And it's the same old nothing - again and again. Saw one the other day about Paul's 'eye witness' account. Ha! Ignorance is bliss indeed.
I've learned 2 things: Never debate fundies - they are a lost cause. And, never assert anything without having the facts to back you up.
I was once a fundie - I think.. not really sure since I tend to ignore labels. The false apostle angle worked on me, but that I found for myself outside of an argument. Most arguments being used against Christians are by people who never looked beyond the surface, and try to over simplify things, or argue nonsense like Darwinian evolution.
What I was doing was expressing that we need more than just the title to get people to look at the video because Christians will likely see it as a typical repetitive attack that they've been trained to ignore or counter.
I send out bulletins and am lucky if half the people responding actually read the article or watch the video before running their mouths. Maybe someone should release it under the title: 100 reasons God is Great! or something like that. The current title would deter people is all I was saying.
