Update on the way...
This is my FAL -military historians used to call it “the right arm of the free world”.

Silly people. Easter Eggs have absolutely
nothing to do with the resurrection of Jesus
Christ. Easter Eggs are already an attempt
to erase God. Interesting that they are
still convicted because the knowledge of God
the Creator cannot be erased. It is written
on their hearts.
Why not call them "Spring eggs"? Is there something wrong with eggs that even they must be renamed?
How do I break the news to my chickens that they are laying spheres?
Coming to a supermarket near you 4 types of eggs: Winter spheres, Spring spheres, Summer spheres and Autumn spheres.
It seems the latest fad is to rename things.
WTF ! This political correctness is getting ridiculous and stupid !
“My blood is boiling”
Those four words say everything
HAHAHA.. Remember Sea Kittens? that’s what they call fish.
Duh winning!
I like my spheres over easy.
I was looking at a map that rated states on how happy they were the other day.
The number one state was TN, followed by most of the Southern States. The west coast and NE states were the most unhappy.
The person writing it up couldn’t figure it out. Perhaps it was the weather?
But I can. Liberals are always more depressed than conservatives. They don’t have religious values (which teach gratitude, worth and the love of God) and they tend to have substandard family relationships.
It’s become a Christian tradition. They symbolize new life. We always teach the “Resurrection Eggs” story at our church. And there is also an egg on the Passover plate, which makes it our tradition before it was theirs.
I’ve seen the Passover egg described as representing the Passover Sacrifice, and also as representing renewal of life.
I have no problem with symbols appropriated from other cultures hundreds of years ago. An Egg is a very good symbol to illuminate for young minds who Jesus is.
Thank you :) I completely agree with your statement and would add. If kids are taught well at home, if they have a personal relationship with Jesus, then these superficial, irrelevant when it comes to knowing God, things that the liberals are trying to change won’t affect them at all.
Easter itself is a perversion of Christianity. In the original text it was Passover/pasha that was celebrated by the First Century Christians.neither Paul—nor any of the eyewitnesses to Christ would have dared confuse Easter with its pagan symbology with a Holy day.I find it poetic justice that those who have rejected this nations founding Religion and Morality are now so ignorant that they confuse this paganism with Christianity.... and now refuse to call Easter Eggs what they are because of the taint of a relation with Christianity.
They can only brainwash and indoctrinate those that aren’t getting good counsel at home. And who don’t have a real relationship with Jesus.
Exactly...Easter eggs have nothing to do with Christianity...they are doing this to tweak Christians, but all they are doing is making complete fools of themselves...
Great post...
Let’s name “democrats,” “progressives” and “liberals” what they truly are: “communists.”
That’s just your opinion driven by a fundamentalist view of Christianity and rigid interpretation of the Bible.
There are hundreds of millions of Eastern Orthodox Christians celebrating the Easter tradition with red dyed eggs and red wine dipped sweet bread. This traditional Easter fare is documented to date since the Apostle Andrew christened the region around the North-Eastern side of the Mediterranean and the Black Sea, 2000 years ago. And now you are you accusing all those Orthodox Christians following his teachings of heresy?
You know, the way you are arguing religion has more in common with the Wahhabbist branch of Islam than with Christianity: only your own religious beliefs are true, anyone else is either an apostate or an infidel.
Stonyburk made a good point.
Linking him to Islam is extreme
and uncalled for. Please stop.
