HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE!!!

heppy easter everyone who celebrates it today.

yup yup happy easter to all of you who celebrate it

bah, i hate easter. :no:

^~ not a big fan of easter.... but to people that celebrate it, have a good one....

My parent's went to the bay area without me for Easter.
Not that we celebrate it anyway..but it's a significant holiday and I wish more kids knew what the hell they were celebrating.

At work yesterday, I actually had a little girl that said, "Easter is Candy day!!" :no:

Happy Easter indeed... church and lunch with the fam, now off to my beach house with some friends for spring break. ;)

im doing nothing but recovering from a long night of partying last night.i went to black oak casino (indian casino) and gambled and drank the night away so now im just hanging out for easter, no real plans,maybe some halo2. happy easter to all

I really dislike easter.

What do you like any holiday...

Halloween, St Patty's day, parts of Thanksgiving. Um...thats all I can think of right now.
Im not much of a holiday person

PAT, why Halloween?

I mean..my theory is that you like ST Patty's day..for the drinking.
Thanksgiving for the food.

but why Halloween?

I actually like St Patty's day because I can call it MY holiday. I mean its the only time when being Irish is fun. And the drinking.

I just like halloween because its the total opposite of every single other holiday of the year. It promotes darkness rather than family and togetherness, kids run totally amok, and everything is supposed to be scary. I love it for its difference

Happy Easter everyone....eating chocolate alll day :):yes:

Eh my holiday is coming up soon. My buddy Rach dragged me to church with her this morning.. and i met their pastor he goes
Its great to have you.. what backround are you from if you dont mind me asking" .. I was like... "Im a jew".. he gave me a weird look

Does anyone even know how easter originated?

Sure...it arose from some christians with the somewhat disturbing notion that they'd celebrate the death and resurrection of their lord and savior by telling children a large rabbit came and left them chocolate eggs overnight. No...wait...that'd just be silly.:D

Seriously...just like all other christian practices it's probably loosely rooted in paganism.

The Encyclopædia Britannica comments: “There is no indication of the observance of the Easter festival in the New Testament, or in the writings of the apostolic Fathers. The sanctity of special times was an idea absent from the minds of the first Christians.”

The Catholic Encyclopedia tells us: “A great many pagan customs, celebrating the return of spring, gravitated to Easter. The egg is the emblem of the germinating life of early spring. ._._. The rabbit is a pagan symbol and has always been an emblem of fertility


not all christians celebrate them.

^ahha wow i learn something new every day
