    FACT: Easter is a religious holiday

    Easter is a Christian religious holiday.
    So why the fuck do 99% of you "Atheists" celebrate it?

    Look at all the "Happy Easter" threads, yet you slam religion like it butt fucked you in the ass.

    The ancient Saxons celebrated the return of spring with an uproarious festival commemorating their goddess of offspring and of springtime, Eastre. When the second-century Christian missionaries encountered the tribes of the north with their pagan celebrations, they attempted to convert them to Christianity.

    As it happened, the pagan festival of Eastre occurred at the same time of year as the Christian observance of the Resurrection of Christ. It made sense, therefore, to alter the festival itself, to make it a Christian celebration as converts were slowly won over. The early name, Eastre, was eventually changed to its modern spelling, Easter.

    The Easter Bunny is not a modern invention. The symbol originated with the pagan festival of Eastre. The goddess, Eastre, was worshipped by the Anglo-Saxons through her earthly symbol, the rabbit.


    Happy Easter

      Even if you dont believe in the holiday, any excuse to get together with family, enjoy good food & laughs, is good in my book. I dont beleive in ghouls and goblins but I like to celebrate halloween.
      No doubt one may quote history to support any cause, as the devil quotes scripture.

            Easter isn't even a Christian holiday sorry to inform you. The christians stole it from the pagans it was around centuries before christ was even born.

            Cybele, the Phrygian fertility goddess had a consort, Attis, who was believed to have died and been resurrected each year (at... wow easter time). Born of a virgin, he died and was ressurrected anually. The story of Attis was simply grafted onto Jesus's life in order to make "Christianity" more palatable and gain pagan converts.

            Enjoy the Pagan, wannabe Christian holiday, heathens

                  easter has nothing to do with religion, the true form of easter.. christians just love to make other days their own.

                  easter is a spring festival.

                      Eastre, Ostara, Eostre, all different forms for the same goddess.. The myth itself is Phrygian in origin, however pagans often interchange the names of gods/goddesses simply depending on the region. Aphrodite, Ashtoreth, Astarte, Demeter, Hathor, Ishtar, Kali, Ostara, essentually the same "goddess" with a different name

                      Christmas is another one of those lovely pagan-originated, Christian-bastardized holidays.

                      Either way it's a nice time to spend time with the family, no matter what your religious beliefs.

                                Once again you prove that you are an IDIOT. Easter has nothing to do with any religion, it is a Farmers holiday to praise the Egg.....jeesh, don't you know anything...

                                                Cybele, the Phrygian fertility goddess had a consort, Attis, who was believed to have died and been resurrected each year (at... wow easter time). Born of a virgin, he died and was ressurrected anually. The story of Attis was simply grafted onto Jesus's life in order to make "Christianity" more palatable and gain pagan converts.

                                                Enjoy the Pagan, wannabe Christian holiday, heathens
                                                All religious holidays are stolen from pagan and pre pagan beliefs. What many don't realize, a lot of what is in the bible, specifically the old testament, are just newer translations of what came before. Same shit, just the face and people behind it changed or restructured to fit with the current civilization and political climate.

                                                    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Easter
                                                    Read much?

                                                    Cultural elements, such as the Easter Bunny and Easter egg hunts, have become part of the holiday's modern celebrations, and those aspects are often celebrated by many Christians and non-Christians alike.

                                                    I'm Non-Christian and Not Religious... My kids had easter baskets for the "holiday celebrations."

What many don't realize, a lot of what is in the bible, specifically the old testament, are just newer translations of what came before. Same shit, just the face and people behind it changed or restructured to fit with the current civilization and political climate.

It will say it doesn't care but the fact that it posted at all says that it does.

                                                                                        I refer to it as it because I'm no longer sure if it's male or female. It has posts on this board claiming to be one, then others where it says it's the other. Not that I care. :D
