Not really anti-christian, religion is not my business but the basis of that story is from the winter solstice, just a random fact nothing more. For all I know Jesus was real and its just an interesting coincidence.

Back when I was younger I enjoyed religious shit, didn't believe in it but was fascinated with it, like the stories and stuff. From there you found interesting things like the story of Noah's ark was written 1500 years before the Holy bible came out. It mostly started with Greek Mythology and went from there. Back in the days before christ there were few prominent religions (like Judaism) and many religions that just fell into specific territories and countries of that time. Its interesting how many religions tie together in one way or another, a lot of times it almost identical with a few minor differences.

Every atom in your body was forged in a star. Long story short: stars fuse hydrogen into helium for energy. Eventually they run out of hydrogen, so they fused helium into bigger elements, but this gives less energy. Once you start fusing iron you lose energy, but the mass of the star can't stop itself. The rest of the elements come from volatile conditions in supernovas. You are made of 100% star.
