    If China gets Christianised, are you going to claim that Easter actually had it’s origins in the Qingming festival

    If the entire Christian world then adopts elements of the Qingming festival and changes the name of it’s spring solstice festival to “Qingming”, then yes, of course.

      Except that never happened with pagan festivals either, apart from Easter taking the name of the month that was named after a pagan deity.
