Christian's tried everything from plagiarizing texts to renaming holidays. You just can't wipe out a good thing.

Only because paganism existed WAY before Christianity did...and both are described in many ancient books...but paganism is the oldest around

That's only true if you don't realize that Christianity is in reality a sect of Judaism which was at first called "the way" and that Judaism traces it's origins back to Abraham and his ancestry is traced back through people like Noah to Adam. The same God who created the first man and woman is the same God of Christianity. Unlike pagan "gods" whom the Bible identifies as demons or "devils".
Deuteronomy 32:17 They sacrificed unto devils, not to God; to gods whom they knew not, to new gods that came newly up, whom your fathers feared not.

I think that it's interesting that SOME Christians will try to point to how old Christianity is to show that god must be favoring it.

No, what is interesting is Paganism's attempt to claim statistics that they don't possess. God is all powerful. May God Bless U.
