    “He’s cute and all, but we’re not changing him!”

    “The Adoration of the Magi” aka the Zoroastrian priests like Jesus too.‘Magi’ is a corruption of the Zoroastrian title for their priests. and there is a very strong Zoroastrian element in Christianity. The whole concept of an ‘evil god’ (ie Satan) is borrowed from them, as is the idea that the ‘creator’ god is not accessible, so you have to worship his son
