REID: It’s a man. The male pelvis is more narrow, and the opening at the bottom is heart-shaped, as opposed to oval. REID: Melted wax? JJ: Candle wax? REID: Candles are used in rituals. GIDEON: They’re also used on birthday cakes. REID: Actually, they were originally used to protect the birthday celebrant from demons for the coming year. As a matter of fact, down to the fourth century, Christianity rejected the birthday celebration as a pagan ritual.
Reid looks so proud of himself at the end of this video.
We’re all proud of you too, Spencer. :3
reid is soo right
In many ways, candles were considered sinful until about 400 AD. Candles were believed to be a link to the underworld and hell, and were, according to one source, used to call the dead and demons from the depths of hell. Candles are still used in many Satanistic and Wican rituals, such as seances.

Hehe ^_^ that is so funny! They banned birthday cakes! This will be the perfect thing to bring up in a debate 🙂 Thank you very much, Spencer 🙂
Oh, I understand now, thanks.
Christmas used to be a pagan festival (winter solstise-sorry about spelling) but Christians sort of hijacked it so it’s not anymore. I think it was them trying to stop pagan traditions by taking over their feast days. They also share some other holidays and there are quite a few similarities between the christian gospels and pagan mythology if you look at Jesus and Osiris-Dionysus. Also most christians do celebrate birthdays only a few don’t e.g. jehova’s witness’s i.e. really strict ones.
