Christian Superstition

Synopsis of article

Superstition is a belief founded on irrational feelings, especially of fear.

Christians believe in the three gods of the trinity. Further, they believe in a fourth god - an evil one called Satin the Devil. Led by this frightening Prince of darkness, evil supposedly battles against the forces of good led by the God Who "is Light" - as though darkness was something other than the absence of light.

An Islamic tradition holds that "knowledge is a single point, but the ignorant have multiplied it." Augustine wrote the first apology for the trinity - 23 volumes. This work of fifteen years didn't satisfy Hilary, who wrote a further 12 volumes. Though incomprehensible, the trinity is a perennial selling point for Christianity amongst the credulous, as with Tertullian who wrote: "I believe because it is impossible."

Christianity is rife with such superstitions. The reason Christians have an Easter Bunny laying eggs in the Spring, celebrate the birth of "The Prince of Peace" at the Winter solstice, displaced the Sabbath to "Sun Day", and venerate graven images is because unprincipled church fathers sanctioned by Emperor Constantine formalized the Hellenistic acculturation of the faith of Jesus begun by the apostate Paul.
