RE: The annual 'Origin of Easter' thread
I think we should start saying AM instead of AD, "AM" meaning "After Myth" and "BM" for "Before Myth".

Luckily, for me, I am familiar, in name at least, with Eostre, so knew/strongly suspected the festival's origins are in fact most definitely NOT Xtian. Bought myself some lamb for dinner as a special treat - I only buy lamb once a year or even less. Happy Eostre AF massive  Cool
