@troywojick For the same reason that Christians co-opted Yule, Ostara, and Samhain. It gives them a ready-made audience that already has nebulous beliefs that can be molded to match their own.
@ByuSome It's so entertaining when christians fight over the best way to worship their imaginary friends. Considering all the unbelievable things that people believe from their bible, the idea that JC made it to the Americas would be as credible as returning from the dead.
@Clearpath__ Most people who talk about intelligent design never mention the possibility that the design itself is intelligent. Like water seeking its own level, the universe fine tunes us for the conditions present. Not chance, but evolution finding a way to adapt to circumstances.
