Andrew Henry - Easter and "Pagan Origins"

My guest today is Dr Andrew Henry, who is an adjunct professor at George Washington University in Washington DC and a specialist in late antique Mediterranean religion. He is also the writer and presenter of the excellent Religion for Breakfast YouTube channel, where he has several videos debunking claims about the supposed "pagan origins" of Christian festivals. Today, we discuss the various claims about the supposed "pagan origin" of the date of and customs surrounding Easter. We go on to talk about why this "pagan origins" idea is so persistent and his work trying to bring a more balanced and scholarly perspective to this and associated topics regarding the history of religion. My own video on Easter's alleged pagan origins can be found here:    • Is Easter Pagan?   Andrew's recent Religion for Breakfast video on the same topic is here:    • Did a Pagan Goddess Inspire Easter?   And I'd strongly recommend a subscription to Religion for Breakfast for more great content:    / @religionforbreakfast
