That magical time of year again...

I like dicks, but comparing him to one makes dicks look bad.

"Ressurrection day"? Who even uses that word
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
Psalm 14, KJV revised edition
So we're once again down to scrutinizing grammar...

I mentioned nothing of grammar.
Oh, wait, I did. xD The last word in your response to me was the problem. For it to mean what you wanted it to mean, you should have stated, "humanity" rather than "inhumanity".

I don't find happy Easter insulting.
Happy Resurrection Day is a bit odd. My guess the clerk was playing I'm a better christian than you by emphasising the true meaning of Easter. I have a sick sense of humor and various retorts come to mind: Don't you mean happy Salvation Day? (The one upper); I hope you had a happy Scurging and Crucifixion Friday (The grusome) *sob* *sniff* I'm sorry but my daughter died in a car crash on the way to Easter service and now chocolate bunnies make me cry. (The guilt inducing) Sorry we're pagan, but I promise to have a great fertility festival just for you--eggs, bunnies, and chicks, spring flowers. (Counterculture aggressive) Oh, and I thought it was Easter. (The Traditionalist) Easter is just a cultural appropriation of Passover. We think it's inappropriate to celebrate it. (The obnoxiously PC) Oh no, Easter should be a time of prayer and contemplation. (The ultimate one upper*). But I wouldn’t actually say any of them except perhaps, oh and I thought it was Easter. And I'd save that for the obviously piusly smug.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god. If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.

How unbelievably rude and pompous. It just amazes me how some Christians can be so damn sensitive about their own personal beliefs, but they have no problem shoving them down the throats of strangers with a complete disregard for (and frankly, apathy toward) those people's personal beliefs. Or lack of beliefs. Keep your Jesus in your fucking pants! Lol, okay, I'll play. So, I don't love my fellow man because I was irritated by a stranger pushing her religious beliefs on me, unprovoked? Even though I smiled politely, left, and then came here to vent to my fellow atheists in private? Yeah, you're right. I'm a terrible role model for my child.

Th cashier next to her was wearing bunny ears so I think it was a passive aggressive knock on her for losing sight of the "true meaning" of the holiday. I don't mind happy Easter either. Happy resurrection day is way too heavy on the Jesus for my tastes though. [emoji12]

I've been saying to people the last few days. And they say it back.
Here in Australia, where hardly anyone is religious, when I say "have a happy easter", I'm implying "have a nice 4 day break from work". And we are grateful for the 4 day break. Who gives a fuck what the reasons are? Right? No-one gives 2 shits about the queen here, but watch out s the govt tries to take away our queen's birthday long weekend! (Her actual birthday is months off, but for some reason we have it in June)
No God, No fear.

For me, Easter is all about the Peeps and the Cadbury Cream Eggs, bitches! I LOVE Easter! Oh, and time with my family is nice too. As long as they bring me Peeps. Thanks to everyone for entertaining my rantings! ❤️ You guys!
