That's just some dribble that David dIcke made up The English word "Easter" relates to Estre, a Teutonic (German) goddess of the rising light of day and spring. No one seems to know why this English word was used for the celebration of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ. The great feast of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ was celebrated long before the unchristian English word "Easter" was first used. And the celebration of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ is directly related to the Jewish feast of Passover going back to about 3,000 B.C.E. Most other languages use the Jewish/Christian word for "Passover" for the great celebration of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ that English speakers call "Easter." The Greek term for "Passover" is Páskha. It is the Aramaic form of the Hebrew pesach (meaning passover). Other languages: Afrikaans: Paasfees Albanian: Pashkët Breton: Pask Seder Catalan: Pasqua Chamorro: Pasgua Cornish: Pask Danish: Påske or Paaske Dutch: Pasen or Paschen Esperanto: Paskon Finnish: Pääsiäistä French: Pâques Galician: Pascuas Icelandic: Páska Indonesian: Paskah Italian: Pasqua Jèrriais: Pâques Latin: Pascha Norwegian: Påske Portuguese: Páscoa Scottish: Pask Sicilian: Pasqua Spanish: Pascuas Swahili: Pasaka Swedish: Påsk Welsh: Pasg Even in the German provinces of the Lower Rhine where the Teutonic goddess Estre had its origins, the people call the feast Paisken not Ostern. [/quote] Would you agree that the true intent of "original easter" has been hijacked by fertile bunny rabbits and "renewal of the season" theme? [/quote] Indeed I do agree my good sir. [/quote]

Read through this a couple nights ago, some was a little out there, but some was spot on with my truth detector.
I read jeremiah 10 a while ago and once thought about the christmas tree, took some actual research to learn about other idols prevalent everywhere in society though.
