Supposedly? Where is your faith? :)

An the whole painting of easter eggs is done to get the kids involved, so they want to know more about it, nothing more. :)

Wanna go to church with me?

Chris

Everybody loves egg....:)

Which came first, the egg or the Easter Bunny?

You know your kid's growing up when they say "dad the easter bunny's not real."

:(

easter was tight. Got faded with heaps of great people. Jesus would be happy

OMG is that what they told you at church?

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

Did everyone find the hidden eggs?

My wife and I hid 48 plastic eggs for an Easter egg hunt for our kids and their nieces and nephews. They all had some jelly beans or quarters in them, but one of the eggs was gold and had a $20 bill in it. We still haven't found the fucking golden egg.

Note to self. Next year, write down where you hide the golden egg.

Presents for Easter? I have been getting ripped off.

religion is the governments way of controlling the brainwashed masses. they use religion to keep people in line utilizing the fear that one day you will go to hell because you didnt visit a cerain building once a week.

i am so happy to see lately the debunking of all the religious rights foundations. there have been several religious "facts" proved not accurate by science.

the melding of church and state (which isn't supposed to be done) is ridiculous during this idiots terms as president.

yea thats why they start putting all the shit in stores months in advance now for holidays LOL

I did not even celebrate easter.... I was busy working on some shit, and did not even have time to goto my inlaws to eat dinner...

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

Yeah, religion has only been around for how many thousands of years? and it is just going to disappear in the next 100. :1orglaugh

you crack me up sometimes

The world is far less religious than it was a few hundred years ago.

Problem Solved ...put little Herion Bags in the Plastic Eggs and Hide them.
Now that would be fun to watch.

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

It will just get repackaged, Jesus is Johnny Come Lately. There were plenty before him and they'll be more after him.

religion is fucking stupid... i was riding on my pimp ass bicycle last saturday (with a bottle of rum in my hand - dont drink and drive motor vehicles) past this fucking church and saw the hypocrite sheep masses.. fucking dumb asses.

Please stop acting like you know anything beyond being a clown and hitting the -post- button or sucking cock.

It's fucking painful to read.

we celebrate easter but we don't have those easter eggs and easter bunnies. we just go to church to commemorate the completion of Christ's passion

eat a dick fuckhead!

still waiting for you to say anything to my face. heard you don't live in the states, so assmunch away keyboard faggot.

This argument is old. :(

:upsidedow

Acting like a hardass when you're a walking anorexia advert isn't wise.

This is classic glorified sigwhore bullshit that needed to be quoted for posterity.

I have to ask how you arrived at this conclusion. You have some stats to support it?

There's no doubt that religion's chokehold on society is waning, even in the muslim countries... but I think it will be more than 100 years before we see them dissappear.

Here Easter is an excuse to get hammered, I spent all last week and this weekend drinking rum on the pool deck...

Our entire society was built on religion. Anyone who thinks it is going away is an idiot. It'll be around 100 years from now, 1,000 years from now.

There hasn't been anything out of science recently either that has made anyone question their faith. Science hasn't debunked anything. I would say it has made atheists more strong in their beliefs though, but only because anti-religious stuff is on TV, the internet and the media in general for the first time. It's very empowering to those groups, but certainly hasn't converted any Christians or Jews.

Society can believe whatever it wants. I am a free thinker...and I have made the educated decision that all religion is a bunch of nonsense.

More people have died, been oppressed, or cheated by religion than any other force on Earth. Organized religion is a bad thimg IMO.

The rest of the world can live in a stained-glass prison if they want...it doesn't mean I need to.

:2 cents:

Hi Sugar, this will make you laugh. I drug Raj into church on Sunday (no, not drugged-he went willingly after a weekend of blowjobs and hot sex) and he was so happy that he made it out with his life and didn't burst into flames. He said that, not me. He laughed his ass off when the minister told an online dating story. Religion helps keep me grounded and put things into perspective. If I don't factor it in, somehow I get too focused on work and nothing else matters. It's not easy for type A's to stay balanced (or for psycho's like me). Sometimes hot showers and masturbation work just as well so to each their own. Whatever gets us through the day is all good.

BTW, don't tell him I was in here or I will get in big trouble.

The holiday often involves a church service at sunrise, a feast which includes an "Easter Ham", decorated eggs and stories about rabbits.

Those who love truth learn to ask questions, and many questions must be asked regarding the holiday of Easter.

Is it truly the day when Jesus arose from the dead? Where did all of the strange customs come from, which have nothing to do with the resurrection of our Saviour?

The purpose of this tract is to help answer those questions, and to help those who seek truth to draw their own conclusions.

The first thing we must understand is that professing Christians were not the only ones who celebrated a festival called "Easter."

"Ishtar", which is pronounced "Easter" was a day that commemorated the resurrection of one of their gods that they called "Tammuz", who was believed to be the only begotten son of the moon-goddess and the sun-god.

In those ancient times, there was a man named Nimrod, who was the grandson of one of Noah's son named Ham.

Ham had a son named Cush who married a woman named Semiramis.Cush and Semiramis then had a son named him "Nimrod."

After the death of his father, Nimrod married his own mother and became a powerful King.

The Bible tells of of this man, Nimrod, in Genesis 10:8-10 as follows: "And Cush begat Nimrod: he began to be a mighty one in the earth. He was a mighty hunter before the Lord: wherefore it is said, even as Nimrod the mighty hunter before the Lord. And the beginning of his kingdom was Babel, and Erech, and Accad,and Calneh, in the land of Shinar."

Nimrod became a god-man to the people and Semiramis, his wife and mother, became the powerful Queen of ancient Babylon.

Nimrod was eventually killed by an enemy, and his body was cut in pieces and sent to various parts of his kingdom.

Semiramis had all of the parts gathered, except for one part that could not be found.

That missing part was his reproductive organ. Semiramis claimed that Nimrod could not come back to life without it and told the people of Babylon that Nimrod had ascended to the sun and was now to be called "Baal", the sun god.

Queen Semiramis also proclaimed that Baal would be present on earth in the form of a flame, whether candle or lamp, when used in worship.

Semiramis was creating a mystery religion, and with the help of Satan, she set herself up as a goddess.

Semiramis claimed that she was immaculately conceived.

She taught that the moon was a goddess that went through a 28 day cycle and ovulated when full.

She further claimed that she came down from the moon in a giant moon egg that fell into the Euphrates River.

This was to have happened at the time of the first full moon after the spring equinox.

Semiramis became known as "Ishtar" which is pronounced "Easter", and her moon egg became known as "Ishtar's" egg."

Ishtar soon became pregnant and claimed that it was the rays of the sun-god Baal that caused her to conceive.

The son that she brought forth was named Tammuz.

Tammuz was noted to be especially fond of rabbits, and they became sacred in the ancient religion, because Tammuz was believed to be the son of the sun-god, Baal. Tammuz, like his supposed father, became a hunter.

The day came when Tammuz was killed by a wild pig.

Queen Ishtar told the people that Tammuz was now ascended to his father, Baal, and that the two of them would be with the worshippers in the sacred candle or lamp flame as Father, Son and Spirit.

Ishtar, who was now worshipped as the "Mother of God and Queen of Heaven", continued to build her mystery religion.

The queen told the worshippers that when Tammuz was killed by the wild pig, some of his blood fell on the stump of an evergreen tree, and the stump grew into a full new tree overnight. This made the evergreen tree sacred by the blood of Tammuz.

She also proclaimed a forty day period of time of sorrow each year prior to the anniversary of the death of Tammuz.

During this time, no meat was to be eaten.

Worshippers were to meditate upon the sacred mysteries of Baal and Tammuz, and to make the sign of the "T" in front of their hearts as they worshipped.

They also ate sacred cakes with the marking of a "T" or cross on the top.

Every year, on the first Sunday after the first full moon after the spring equinox, a celebration was made.

It was Ishtar's Sunday and was celebrated with rabbits and eggs.

Ishtar also proclaimed that because Tammuz was killed by a pig, that a pig must be eaten on that Sunday.

By now, the readers of this tract should have made the connection that paganism has infiltrated the contemporary "Christian" churches, and further study indicates that this paganism came in by way of the Roman Catholic System.

The truth is that Easter has nothing whatsoever to do with the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ.

We also know that Easter can be as much as three weeks away from the Passover, because the pagan holiday is always set as the first Sunday after the first full moon after the spring equinox.

Some have wondered why the word "Easter" is in the the King James Bible.

It is because Acts, chapter 12, tells us that it was the evil King Herod, who was planning to celebrate Easter, and not the Christians.

The true Passover and pagan Easter sometimes coincide, but in some years, they are a great distance apart.

So much more could be said, and we have much more information for you, if you are a seeker of the truth.

We know that the Bible tells us in John 4:24, "God is a spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth."

The truth is that the forty days of Lent, eggs, rabbits,hot cross buns and the Easter ham have everything to do with the ancient pagan religion of Mystery Babylon.These are all antichrist activities!

Satan is a master deceiver, and has filled the lives of well-meaning, professing Christians with idolatry.

These things bring the wrath of God upon children of disobedience, who try to make pagan customs of Baal worship Christian.

You must answer for your activities and for what you teach your children.

These customs of Easter honor Baal, who is also Satan, and is still worshipped as the "Rising Sun" and his house is the "House of the Rising Sun."

How many churches have "sunrise services" on Ishtar's day and face the rising sun in the East?

How many will use colored eggs and rabbit stories, as they did in ancient Babylon.

These things are no joke, any more than Judgement day is a joke.

I pray to God that this tract will cause you to search for more truth.

We will be glad to help you by providing more information and by praying for you.

These are the last days, and it is time to repent, come out and be separate.

LOL - you expect me to pay attention to a guy named Nimrod in Genesis? I thought that was Phil Collins.

I couldn't read your whole post...I think "War & Peace" was shorter.

Dumb it down for me please.

Evidently you are not able to separate the dogma from the party. Cheers anyway..

That's exactly right. And in another 100 years as science continues to overtake religion it'll be even less.

Kind of funny the way baddog laughed. Guess he hasn't been to a church recently. The aisles are empty.

Yeah, fuck reading all that, eh?

I do agree to Karl Marx' theory, no doubt. I also believe in traditions. I believe in the sanction of the family. And I do believe in love.

Not to jesus, not to Allah, and there is no Buddha in my veins.

Easter bunnies are fun. It is a nice tradition. It is something that brings families together, and love is shown.

So, long live the rabbit.

Oy--

LOL! I was waiting for this one.

I like to eat the heads off chocolate bunnies ......

It's quite a bit. Where did you get that from?
