Christianisation of pagan holidays is a protestant myth.
Samhain was only celebrated in the British isles. There is no evidence that any other Celtic people celebrated it, nor even that all the celts had the same religion. We have absolutely 0 evidence that it was anything more than a harvest festival. Meanwhile, all saints day had been celebrated for far longer, though at different times of the year depending on location, by all Christian sects.
The same sort of shit applies to yule and Christmas, and to Easter. The fuckin retarded idea that Easter is named after some Babylonian fertility deity or whatever is hilariously stupid, because it's only called "easter" in the English speaking world. Everywhere else, it's called the Pasch.

Theres a term your looking for, and its "Judaized". Protestantism, despite Luther's best efforts later in life, was Judaized from the start. Toss out the tradition of the Catholic Church and of the Church Fathers, and all you are left with is purely the Bible. Which on its own, isnt the worst form of heresy, but when you start removing books that provide the foundation for Christian tradition and then use translations based on the (((Masoretic Text))), which deliberately obfuscates all the prophecies relating to Christ, you will end up with a religion that is wholly subservient to the jews.
Modern Protestantism is based on the utterly nonsense idea that around 300 years after jesus, everyone magically stopped being Christian for about a millenia, and then Martin Luther magically rediscovered "Christianity". As a result, Modern Protestantism is an attempt to return to a "Pre-Catholic" Church, and the only "Pre-Catholic" Church is the Religion of the Hebrews. Ergo, the protestants are attempting to become Jews again, and of course that means they have utterly fallen into the trap of the Synagogue of Satan and their Imposter Religion.

A house of worship should have at its focal point, God.
If instead that focal point is a man at a pulpit... you have made men God.... (wich is the Modernist / Rabinnic / Masonic method)

I would agree with that, the change from Ad Orientem has been an utter disaster, and is probably responsible for the decline in the belief of the Real Presence and the transformation of Mass into a boomer concert hall.
The date of December 25th was set 9 months after Mary became pregnant, wich was exactly 6 months after her aunt became pregnant with John the Baptist, wich happened when Gabriel apeara to Zacharias when he is alone in the Temple.
So figure out what Tribe his priestly duties were from and what time of the year and feasts he would have been responsible for, and what year that holiday was in 2 BC.... thats what the 25th MUST match up to...

they are all JIDF or other kinds of subverters. I doubt any prots really think that about catholics. Its all fake and gay
In 1 Corinthians 8, Paul describes meat that had been literally, knowingly offered to idols. That's much more extreme than Christmas etc., where the most that can be claimed is that it bears some resemblance to long-forgotten pagan traditions - but Paul doesn't condemn eating that meat.
As with Paul's meat situation, I wouldn't knowingly invite a brother over for Christmas who believes the whole thing is inherently pagan and sinful - which of us is right about this isn't what's important.
It's understandable to be concerned about monolithic church hierarchy and/or reject it out of principle. The New Testament believers had nothing resembling a denominational structure; each assembly had their own bishops, elders, and deacons, but there was no multi-church "management team". Paul spent a lot of time writing to churches that were having problems, but he clearly wasn't their boss - he couldn't fire the pastor or anything like you'd see with the multi-church denominations of today.

Toast message
1- There is no such festival / holiday called Samhain, other than a word that appears on a Gauish Caladar meaning Summers End. The ACTUAL Celtic festival of Beltane, celebrated on May 1st is often misrepresented as a pre-Christian Halloween called Samhain to discredit Christianity.
2- Costumes come from Masquerade and Modern traditions, nothing Pagan.
3- Trick or Treat is a Secularized version of Mumming or Soul Cakes... gifts for prayers in the comming holidays.
4- Jack o Lantern - A Christian folk tale about Stingy Jack and his bid to trick the Devil. Its a Christian tradition and story, but in the form of a classic IndoAryan narative called The Smiths Tale.
5- Christianity set Nov 1st (and then 2nd) long before Gaulish and Irish Celts were on the menu.
(And dont even get me started about the date of Christmas!)
Modern "Scholars": ThEy StoLe SaTuRnALiA fRoM tHe RoMaNs!!!!
Saturnalia started in like 500 BC on Dec 17th, and eventually would turn into a full week of celebrations...
Christians celebrated the Nativity of Jesus on December 25th from the 1st century on, so this date was estaished at the time of Jesus or during the Apostolic days...
In fact SO many Roman citizens would be be celebrating Christmas on the 25th, the Emperor came up with a pagan celebration to COUNTER the celebration of Christmas that they called Sol Imvictus, the feast of the Imprtal Sun.
So in fact Pagan Rome creates a holiday on Dec 25th AFTER early Christians start celebrating Christmas on that date. Also note that oncr Christianity is adopted in the Empire, Sol Invictus goes away totally....
