Hey Min, Get Ready To Have A Field Day
March 24, 2018 at 9:01 am
So, what will preachers do this year, give an Easter Sunday sermon or an April Fool's joke?
This has never happened in all my life. The first Easter (as well as the first Christmas) was celebrated in Rome, is based on astrology and has never had squat doodle to do with Jesus except as the SUN of god. But christians still act like they're trying to take back what has never been theirs.
The god who allows children to be raped out of respect for the free will choice of the rapist, but punishes gay men for engaging in mutually consensual sex couldn't possibly be responsible for an intelligently designed universe.

They have entire congregations full of fools. It is something they are well practiced at.... regardless of the date.

Bilking the religious is evergreen. Turnover is high, and there's always an opening.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Easter otta be on a Sabbath day Jesus would have recognized, like sunset Friday to sunset Saturday. It was good enough to Jesus, why Christians think they know better is a fucking mystery.
Arrogant heretics they are !!!
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

What amuses me is not the heresy of easter, but the lies the church tells for why it exists and why it's on the date that it is.
For god so loved the world that he gave his only bedraggled son that whoso believe in his shall not use his brain but shall have everlasting delusions.
There, FIFY

I don't think any christian actually believes the Dec. 25 is Jesus's actual birthday, anyone who knows anything about church history knows that it was the newly converted Roman Christians that incorporated their pagan practices into Christianity after the Jews (which included the Christian Jews) were expelled from Rome.
So what do you want Christians to do, tell the kids they'll no longer celebrate Christmas?
