it became a legal term because christians have their tendrils in anything and everything. -_- unfortunately

i don't think just because they use it, doesnt mean they copied it. i think thats just wishful thinking on the part of pagans... pagans who spend all their time looking for some sort of pagan symbol in christinaity to either try and discredit christinaity or give their own pagan religion some much needed credibility. anyone could find a million similairites amongst other religions. for the simple reason that when one religion took over another. the people kept a lot of their old habits. like say the easter egg, for example. thats a pagan symbol. but when the newly converted christians started t ocelibrate easter. they automaticly thought of the egg as something that symbolised jesus rebirth. because the egg to them has always repersented rebirth/ birth to them.
