it were they to wage war with it no this it were they to wage war with it no this would have been contrary to the famous would have been contrary to the famous would have been contrary to the famous advice of Pope Gregory the that by all advice of Pope Gregory the that by all advice of Pope Gregory the that by all means they should meet the pagans means they should meet the pagans means they should meet the pagans halfway and so bring them into the Roman halfway and so bring them into the Roman halfway and so bring them into the Roman Church the Gregorian policy was Church the Gregorian policy was Church the Gregorian policy was carefully observed and so Midsummer day carefully observed and so Midsummer day carefully observed and so Midsummer day that had been hallowed by paganism to that had been hallowed by paganism to that had been hallowed by paganism to the worship of tamuz was incorporated as the worship of tamuz was incorporated as the worship of tamuz was incorporated as a sacred Christian Festival in the Roman a sacred Christian Festival in the Roman a sacred Christian Festival in the Roman Calendar but still a question was to be Calendar but still a question was to be Calendar but still a question was to be determined what was to be the name of determined what was to be the name of determined what was to be the name of this Pagan Festival when it was was this Pagan Festival when it was was this Pagan Festival when it was was baptized and admitted into the ritual of baptized and admitted into the ritual of baptized and admitted into the ritual of Roman Roman Roman Christianity to call it by its old name Christianity to call it by its old name Christianity to call it by its old name of bell or tamuz at the early period of bell or tamuz at the early period of bell or tamuz at the early period when it seems to have been adopted would when it seems to have been adopted would when it seems to have been adopted would have been too bold to call it by the have been too bold to call it by the have been too bold to call it by the name of Christ was difficult in as much name of Christ was difficult in as much name of Christ was difficult in as much as there was nothing special in his as there was nothing special in his as there was nothing special in his history at that period of commemoration history at that period of commemoration history at that period of commemoration but the subtlety of the Agents of the but the subtlety of the Agents of the but the subtlety of the Agents of the mystery of iniquity was not to be mystery of iniquity was not to be mystery of iniquity was not to be baffled if the name of Christ could not baffled if the name of Christ could not baffled if the name of Christ could not be conveniently taxed to it what should be conveniently taxed to it what should be conveniently taxed to it what should hinder it being called by the name of hinder it being called by the name of hinder it being called by the name of his Forerunner St John the Baptist his Forerunner St John the Baptist his Forerunner St John the Baptist he was born 6 months before a lord when he was born 6 months before a lord when he was born 6 months before a lord when therefore the Pagan Festival of the therefore the Pagan Festival of the therefore the Pagan Festival of the winter solstice had once been winter solstice had once been winter solstice had once been consecrated as the birthday of the savor consecrated as the birthday of the savor consecrated as the birthday of the savor it followed as a matter of course but if it followed as a matter of course but if it followed as a matter of course but if his Forerunner was to have a festival his Forerunner was to have a festival his Forerunner was to have a festival his Festival must be at this very season his Festival must be at this very season his Festival must be at this very season for between the 24th and June and 25th for between the 24th and June and 25th for between the 24th and June and 25th of December that is between the summer of December that is between the summer of December that is between the summer and winter Soul stairs there are just 6 and winter Soul stairs there are just 6 and winter Soul stairs there are just 6 months now for the purposes of the months now for the purposes of the months now for the purposes of the papacy nothing could be more opportune papacy nothing could be more opportune papacy nothing could be more opportune than this one of the many sacred names than this one of the many sacred names than this one of the many sacred names by which tamuz or nimr was called when by which tamuz or nimr was called when by which tamuz or nimr was called when he reappeared in the Mysteries after he reappeared in the Mysteries after he reappeared in the Mysteries after being slain was oanes read berosus bunam
