True, you can disprove the Easter Bunny, but not God.

Easter is simply the celebration of the Spring Equinox. Why Christians have this as a holiday is above me. Silly Constantine, Easter is for paegans haha.

Easter is supposed to be a celebration of the resurrection of Jesus Christ. The rabbit and egg are both symbols of life/fertility, which go along with the whole concept of resurrection.


Just saying, that’s where the bunny came from. People don’t seem to know that.

I love the finding of the eggs. Everything else....

Erm, what... It is fact that the easter bunny does not exist so why can’t you disprove it?

Invade Southern Ireland, it just looks out of place.

I think the real question should be “why can’t you prove it”? Instead of “okay, then disprove it”.

I’m not saying he exists, I’m just saying that there are a lot of things you can’t disprove. But in any case that is not a legit reason to believe in something, not that I’m assuming you believe it.

Yea you believe that bullshit haha. Easter has been a holiday since pre-christian times. It was in celebration of the spring equinox. The reason it has to do with fertility and new life is because in the spring time crops and plants start to grow again. The sun also overtakes darkness in light to dark ration over the world at the time. Basically more light than dark. That’s where the whole life thing comes from. THus you get the celebration of new life and fetility cause in nature and astrology these things are happen.

Constantine actually took Christian ideals and “pagan” ideals and combined them to get masses to join. Easter has nothing to do with the spring equinox and really nothing to do with Jesus’s death. It is simply astrological and pagan. Celebration of the spring equinox.

Ugh... you don’t read everything do you?

Note the supposed to

I’m fully aware that it was originally pagan. Christmas was too.

It’s fairly common knowledge.

another question id like to add, why do i have to answer ur question before u answer mine? i mean sure u have every right to ask a question, but all i want is ur answer man, u dont have to turn this thing into a debate.

p.s. i dont want ur answer to the second question its sort of rhetorical.

That is EXACTLY what I think. If you were born in India, you would probably be a Hindu. If you were born in Israel, you would probably be a Jew. If you were born in Japan, you would probably be a Buddhist. If you were born in Africa, you would probably worship the juju of the mountain.

Do you see the relationship between location and religion?

And I wasn’t aware you were trying to ask me questions. Fire away.

fire away eh? heres a question: why dont u believe in God.

Well through the process of study and observation, asking questions and having my conscious raised I eventually grew out of it. Just as the day you grow out of believing the easter bunny because you realize how ridiculous it sounds.

i never belived in the easter bunny, in fact i never heard my parents mention it. they even told me santa claus is bull.

They told you Santa was bull? Damn, that means no extra presents!

The only thing I ever believed in was the Tooth Fairy. I still find it hard to believe I’d be getting a whole dollar from my dad for losing a tooth =/

I got $5 for each tooth, that’s why I believed in the tooth fairy haha.

yes
winter in the middle east is to cold for a baby to survive in outdoors ( he was half human after all)
and the bible describes his birth in a warm weather

Summer perhaps
and the new christians took old christmas from the Romans which they then turned into a holy party by saying christ was born on Dec 25th
when in fact he could had have been born on July

No it didn’t. It started as a pagan holiday, it was adapted to Christianity. Changing the name doesn’t change it’s history.

As for the whole “Jesus was born on Dec. 25” I don’t recall ever reading or hearing that in the Bible. We apparently assume such.

Also notice, in Biblical artwork, I am not aware of any art of the Nativity Scene in a winter setting.

As far as I’m aware, it’s something Christians tacked on later.

Exactly.

Even the year is disputed. I HIGHLY doubt that they would know the exact date on a calendar that didn’t exist until years later.
