Is this a thing now?

People saying Happy Resurrection Day instead of Happy Easter?

Saw this shite in my Facebook feed from a couple of holy roller types.

frick that. It's Easter. Eat a chocolate rabbit. Watch the Ten Commandments. Hunt for colored eggs. Go to church... Maybe. Why people gotta mess with it?

For people so confident in their religion, they do seem mighty insecure. If you go to services you know what happened on this day(ish) 2000 years ago. Why rename it. Want to change Dec 25 to 'Jesus' Birthday on the Gregorian Calendar'

Oh that's right, some people want to seem SUPER pious.

Well, you do know that the term "Easter" is taken from a Germanic goddess, right? It is a pagan holiday that was taken over and altered by Christianity.

If Scruffy recalls correctly, Eostre, or Ostara, is a goddess of fertility.

Easter comes from Ishtar, a fertility goddess.


Almost all of the Christian holidays have pagan roots.

These are the same people that get bent out of shape about "happy holidays" and here they are changing other holiday's names.

Hypocrites .
