Freethinker (OP) User ID: 928318 United States 04/01/2010 02:02 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | All Christian holidays trace their roots back to the pagan celebrations....it's how Christianity finally eradicated the pagans. If you can't beat them, rename it and take it over. Quoting: lil*missYou are correct. Christ's message was subverted for political and economic benefit to an empire. Still is. Some think Obama is the anti-christ. I do not. The next one? I think the anti-christ will be all about some good main-stream christianity. Roman style. all authority is given to me |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 931360As I watch out my window, I see easter-bunnies running all over the backyard. Announcing spring and fertility. nothing wrong with fertility. Nothing wrong with Springtime and the rebirth of natures cycle. Just don't confuse it with the message of Christ. all authority is given to me |

"How about eggs!?!" "Well what does that have to do with Jesus?" "Alright we'll hide em!" "....I don't follow your logic..." "Don't worry there's a bunny."

But to Change and Be and Do and dissolve both the subject of my person and the object of my God into the fluency of Empirical Providence. The Way, the Truth, and the Life." |

On the Gregorian calendar, that was this past Tuesday. did you clear this with Russ? Nope. We still do the Fri, Sat, Sun story.
