Why are christians so afraid of Pagans?

A website listing Pagan Events (https://www.pagan-events.org.uk) recently suffered a mail bomb attack from christian groups. What do hateful christians hope to achieve with things like that?

Fear and intimidation is obviously what Christians are looking for. Panic and feelings of powerlessness would most likely be most pleasant to them. Pagans that I’ve known are all about authenticity. Authentic is not something Christians are not. Every form of paganism is thousands of older than Christianity (if not tens of thousands of years older). Christianity wants to rewrite history to where they are the oldest religion or only religion. Thus, they feel threatened by older forms of thought. There was a time when Christianity did not exist and paganism was practiced in thousands of different forms.

Christianity has a long covered-up history of violence and oppression. Christianity as we know it today actually has at one time waged war on its self. The oldest group of Christians (most of those who were closest in time to seeing the character named Jesus in the Bible) were called gnostics. After the Bible was composed by the the concil of Nysia (not by their or any god). The Roman Catholic war machine slaughtered a great deal gnostics so no one could try to overturn their Bible. I believe it was the uncovering the Dead Sea Scrolls after thousands of years that brought the name gnostic back. Majority of Christians today had pagan ancestors, educated Catholics know this better than most and it is exactly for this reason the book of giants was kept out of their bible. Rome and Greece has stories of giants even giants that were worshipped as gods. Whether Catholics were specifically afraid of Greeks uprisings or people realizing that the church is bullshit because of this, we may never know.

Christianity is materialism trying to disguise itself as spirituality much like the proverbial wolf in sheep’s clothing. The vast majority of college educated Christians study the Bible or money. If Christianity had stuck to its or never existed Republicans would likely never have existed in America. Speaking of roots ( well close to roots) if you forget about the inquisition and Christianity’s other true means of spreading then the only reason Christianity has gotten this far is because an emperor was high and thought he saw a burning cross flying in the sky and won a battle. That is materialism failing to transform it’s self into spirituality, practically at its finest.

Christians have a lot to worry about and their violent insecurity will hasten their inevitable collapse, but whether it is within a lifetime who knows.

@Greyjedi Using religion, fear and ignorance to impose a political agenda is not exclusive to just Christians.
Look at other religions.
Man was fighting long before organized religion even existed.
