It is the marxists who try to destroy Christianity because they want to destroy everything to build their utopias. They point to hypocrisy, as if it is in short supply and if only we could get rid of the Christians....
Magnificent article. No one who needs persuading will ever read it. Maybe AHA can get Elon Musk to buy "ads" in a couple of major newspapers carrying articles such as yours and others in a similar vein, given that he is a strong advocate of Western Civilization. Meanwhile, nearly all Christian organized sects (including my own Catholic Church) have long left the farm, seeing "relevance" in a God-forsaken world. But hang in there. To steal a quote, "We shall see.".
Do you mean 3500 BC? because as Abe Lincoln said, just like calling a tail a leg doesn’t give a dog 5 legs, adding the E doesn’t change the fact that the birth, death, & resurrection of the Christ split the history of the world into before Christ came and AD, after the year of The Lord.
There is no BCE because there is no "common era" except that which is dated to before and after Christ's entry into the world (give or take a few years). Don't believe me? Check out the Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Iranian (Persian), Jewish Hindu and Mohammedan calendars, not to mention the Mayan one, still referenced by a few Central American tribes. But of course, the whole world runs on the calendar that calls this year 2026. 2026 years from what?

First celebration of Easter: 3,500 BCE

Being an Anglo-Saxon goddess, Ēostre is certainly intertwined with the west.
Converting pagan "holidays" to Christian holy days showed a brilliant understanding of psychology. But you are attempting to be sarcastic, I guess.
Getting an early start? Or are you confusing vernal equinox with Easter?
Uh, ???
If you are to be believed, it would have been LONG before that.
