The truth is the Catholics screwed up everything!!! They changed the calendar they changed everything. They wanted fame at all cost. The true meanings of Christmas and Easter is about Jesus...but they incorporated the pagan festival for people who don't know better.

What I really celebrate therefore is the resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ and hence people know it as Easter which in fact is not. But to cut a long story short yes Easter is pagan but around that time Jesus' resurrection is celebrated.

Avishai: Then if you celebrate a holiday OBVIOUSLY named after a pagan goddess, with attendant symbols, why so freaked out about x-mas? Jesus "Christ" is known as the founder of "Christianity". Christmas is a Christian holiday that commemorates the birth of Jesus. At Easter, Christians celebrate their belief that Jesus came back to life after his death (called "resurrection"). Coming to the word "Easter" in God's Authorized Bible, they seize upon it imagining that they have found proof that the Bible is not perfect. Fortunately for lovers of the word of God, they are wrong. Easter, as we know it, comes from the ancient pagan festival of Astarte. Also known as Ishtar (pronounced "Easter"). This festival has always been held late in the month of April. It was, in its original form, a celebration of the earth "regenerating" itself after the winter season. The festival involved a celebration of reproduction. For this reason the common symbols of Easter festivities were the rabbit (the same symbol as "Playboy" magazine), and the egg. Both are known for their reproductive abilities. At the center of attention was Astarte, the female deity. She is known in the Bible as the "queen of heaven" (Jeremiah 7:18; 44:17-25). She is the mother of Tammuz (Ezekiel 8:14) who was also her husband! These perverted rituals would take place at sunrise on Easter morning (Ezekiel 8:13-16). From the references in Jeremiah and Ezekiel, we can see that the true Easter has never had any association with Jesus Christ Hibiscusfire

Well, Easter is about the DEATH and SACRIFICE of Christ, far more important than his birth, Do you or do you not as a christian, celebrate easter, and refer to it as such? It's a simple question....
Yes I do celebrate Easter. And it is indeed very important!!!
All over the world during the Easter season, multitudes will gather in churches to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ and hear about life after death. Many will suppress a yawn and attend their "yearly church service" to please their spouse. Others will attend out of curiosity; still others, because it makes them "feel good" to think about the cycle of life and new things growing out of death.
A remnant of believers will celebrate Resurrection Day, knowing the real meaning of this season, but many more will simply be going through the tradition of a religious service. Religion cannot save anyone. Only a personal relationship with Jesus Christ the Son of God can give us life after death.

It isn't Xmas, but Christmas For that's the day Christ came. When you take Christ out of Christmas You cross out life's best name. I wonder why they cross out Christ, Why take Christ's name out of Christmas? Why, is it ~ that they cross out Christ, To me ~ X stand for nothing, I'll never try to shame my Lord, Let us all, "KEEP CHRIST IN CHRISTMAS" ~ author unknown ~ |

Fe2: In the early days of printing when typesetting was done by hand and was very tedious and expensive, abbreviations were common. The church began to use the abbreviation C for the word "Christ" in religious publications. From there, the abbreviation moved into general use in newspapers and other publications, and "Xmas" became an accepted way of printing "Christmas."
That is soooooo weak girl!!!
Imagine tedious to type 6 letters but "mas" as 3 is ok. - most important word...Christ.
There was a reason to do that...Satan succeeded in fooling you.
