I don't believe in this things ,but happy easter to you tooπ
shareYou do not believe that things can be hidden in eggs and eaten? You eat the concept every time you make yourself an omlette for cripe sakes!
shareI have a question for you,please don't take it personal,do you have any proof ,tangible evidence that this prophet,has ressurect from the dead?
shareI have proof that he could possibly be a prophet. I mean geez, how hard is it to become a prophet now days? Do I believe he can come back to life, after being dead? Probably not. But then again, life is crazy like that. Most people say that you are dead when your heart stops and people have been "brought back to life" in those cases.
All I am saying is that things do come from eggs. Biologically, bunnies nor rabbits cannot lay eggs, UNLESS they steal from unsuspecting hens. Maybe they have a deal with the hens that if they buy in bulk, they have to give them chicken feed for a year or something? I am not too sure how those negotiations work though. Additionally, why would a rabbit go out of their way to give an egg to a human being? What did humans ever do for rabbits?
I mean I remember seeing a baby rabbit once and somehow it made its way into my garage, think it lost its mom or something. I tried to scare it off, back into its habitat and then a few days later, some delivery guy kills it (flattened in a pool of blood by my front door).
Why should rabbits give eggs to humans after that harsh of a treatment? That baby rabbit would not hurt a fly or maybe it would O_o.
What's the connection between eggs and this holiday called "easter"? I asked everyone,but all the people said is the "tradition",really!?π
shareYou have never heard about the Easter bunny and yet you find it hard to believe a guy can call himself a Prophet?
I think it may be you, who is the confused one.
The whole point of Easter, I thought, was to hide colored plastic eggs or colored "hen" eggs and find them. Of course, a black real egg is a bad egg, while a chocolate one is edible.
How have you not heard about this?
Of course i've heard about this,i grew up with this, but i started to question the world around me,not take things for granted and i 've learned that the things that what was i tought were very defferent then the real facts
shareI love holidays -- all sorts of holidays -- so am more than happy to celebrate them, regardless of my own beliefs or whathaveyou.
Happy Easter!
Never have I heard Jesus being associated with Easter. I am not even sure if Lent makes sense. You have to eat fish, no land animals right or is it meat all together? why are believers so hypocritical when fish is meat. You are eating the meat of a fish right? So why not eat eggs instead? Are eggs even vegetarian? I mean they are not meat, UNLESS you eat one with a zygote. All it is is the placenta of a hen, enclosed in an egg. I would think eggs are vegetarian. Now you have to watch for the chocolate eggs because they do tend to use eggs in chocolate and so if you believe an egg is non-vegetarian, you may have to skip out on Easter all together. Also, is a hen technically a land animal? It is a farm animal. I do not think it is really a bird because it is flightless or do hens fly?
What I am trying to get at is why you are so bent upon proving Jesus as a prophet and being resurrected, when there is so much other bull crap going around.
Eggs, to me, ARE NOT non veg. Eggs are Easter (they both start with E). Chocolate can be made from eggs in the recipe. Eggs + Chocolate = Easter, celebrated the right way
Easter eggs have pagan roots, I guess. Before Christianity, Easter used to be a pagan holiday, whose symbol was a pagan goddess who had a shape of a rabbit.
shareEaster was originally a Pagan fertility holiday. Then when Christianity took over, they re-appropriated it as a Christian holiday to mark "The Resurrection". So in essence, it's a recycled holiday lol.
shareI learn about this thing and more about 5 years ago,but thanks for the " update ",aprilπ
If knowledge is power and power corrups,how the human kind ever survives?
Ditto!! π

Wish I had a chocolate bunny
The most widely accepted theory of the origin of the term Easter is that it is derived from the name of an Old English goddess mentioned by the 7th to 8th-century English monk Bede, who wrote that ΔosturmΕnaΓΎ (Old English 'Month of Δostre', translated in Bede's time as "Paschal month") was an English month, corresponding to April, which he says "was once called after a goddess of theirs named Δostre, in whose honour feasts were celebrated in that month
De temporum ratione
In chapter 15 (De mensibus Anglorum, "The English months") of his 8th-century work De temporum ratione ("The Reckoning of Time"), Bede describes the indigenous month names of the English people. After describing the worship of the goddess Rheda during the Anglo-Saxon month of HrΔΓΎ-mΕnaΓΎ, Bede writes about ΔosturmΕnaΓΎ, the month of the goddess Δostre:
Eostur-monath, qui nunc Paschalis mensis interpretatur, quondam a Dea illorum quæ Eostre vocabatur, et cui in illo festa celebrabant nomen habuit: a cujus nomine nunc Paschale tempus cognominant, consueto antiquæ observationis vocabulo gaudia novæ solemnitatis vocantes
Umm. Okay? Interesting.
Is that last paragraph Latin?
Thanks and ditto!

Happy Belated Holiday π
