Tbf C&L were pretty much obviously born unicorns. It’s pretty obvious when they said an Alicorn at birth was unheard of in S6E1.

Yes, it should be taken word for word because Celestia participated in the play; if anything were wrong, she’d say so.
There was a time when Celestia and Luna didn’t exist, their special talents happened to be raising the sun (Celestia) and moon (Luna), but they couldn’t lower or raise the other (which is made clear when Celestia’s and Luna’s cutie marks switched).
Also, Celestia and Luna weren’t born Alicorns; they saw so when they saw Flurry Heart.
Sorry, but them being gods is pure boomer brony fanon.
And in G5, they repeatedly say that magic works differently now, and that they put magic in those crystals to protect magic. Celestia and Luna also retired, and we still don’t know what that means, but it’s safe to assume that the sun and moon move on their own now.
Also we know that before C&L the unicorns raised the sun & moon.

Did what? Move the sun and moon? It was the play about Celestia’s life Twilight held. You know, the one where it turns out Celestia can’t act or sing. A group of Unicorns did that before Luna and Celestia were born, but they got really tired and felt drained, but since Celestia’s and Luna’s special talent is those specific spells, they get rejuvenated instead.
If you’re referring to the age magic, Twilight even mentions that it’s a high-level spell that only the most powerful Unicorns can do.

I don’t think they’re named, but I think it’s been explicitly stated somewhere in the show, so he’s not wrong. Unicorns can indeed move the sun and moon, just not on their own. As someone said earlier, it takes a team of them, and a fairly large one at that. I think it was 11?

Age magic is a thing, and them being gods is a fanon. Moving the sun and moon is a spell that Unicorns can do.
Alicorns don’t have eternal life; if they did, they would’ve mentioned it since they mentioned in the show that Discord is immortal.
And the fact that Celestia and Luna can be hurt at all means they’re not gods.
Them being gods is just a fanon thing from brony boomers, much like how Chrysalis was jUsT lOoKiNg AfTeR hEr CoLoNy.

Sure, but consider that it took a whole team of them to do it with their combined strength.
Also, it’s worth noting that here in the real world, our gods have basically just been magical humans/beings. So having ponies with extreme magical abilities and long (eternal?) life spans still pretty much fits into the God or God-like category.
Celestia and Luna just check many of the same boxes is all I’m saying.

You telling me that a being that controls the sun and the moon isn’t god-like? Even in a world where magic is commonplace, the ability to move literal celestial bodies is on a whole different level. Not to mention that they were born for that exact, specific purpose, AND that they’re thousands of years old. That’s far more than just having a magical horn.
