Does the pope poo in the woods?

The very name is almost a literal phonetic translation of the original Babylonian, celebrated on the same date.

The Bride of Christ should divorce herself from the pagan religions!

We'd be better off celebrating on Passover!

I doubt it. Babylonian? I thought it was supposed to be Anglo-Saxon?

Evidence? Link?

quote-We’d be better off celebrating on Passover!

There’s a problem with that this year- the 3rd day from Passover was a roman thor’s day this year. That isn’t the 1st day of Rome’s week and scripture says He was raised the 3rd Day (from Passover), the 1st day of the week.

But, if one follows the biblical calendar, that roman thor’s day, was actually the 1st day of the Father’s work week.

So Rome’s calendar and the Father’s calendar differs.

And the biblical pattern is one most in the world can’t afford to follow. It would mess up their work, school, family lives.

And most in the world can’t even see the difference.

That would include the dietary restrictions.

The early church hated the Jews and mostly tried to eliminate Jewish traditions from their practice. Thats the main reason most don’t.

Wrong. The article explains how "Easter" is not the "literal translation" of anything "Babylonian". Care to explain how this "Babylonian" holiday hopped 2000 miles from Mesopotamia to northwestern Europe without leaving any trace along the way?

Stop believing the cleverly designed myths of men and come into the light of Christ.
