Ham? Nothing to do with religion … This is a ploy to sell more ham … Chocolate? Nothing to do with religion … The chocolate has not been introduced into Europe until about 300 years ag … This is a ploy used by companies to sell chocolate … Eggs? The Rabbits? It is a celebration of the vernal equinox As Christians stole the Easter holiday http://www.nobeliefs.com/facts.htm # anchor191933 Christians celebrate the annual festival commemorating the resurrection of Jesus of course between 22 and 25 April. For centuries, the Christian "scholars" have discussed the date of the crucifixion Jesus (cruci-fiction?). Even Christians know when he died. Not produce a shred of evidence of a crucified Jesus on the mountain. Calvary or elsewhere (and have even less evidence of their existence). Jews celebrate "Easter" at the time of the Exodus story where God passes over the "chosen" on your way to kill the firstborn of Egypt (Exodus 11, 12). However, people celebrated Easter during the vernal equinox, long before Judaism, Christianity and superstitious myths. Nothing about the Easter bunny or colored eggs derived from Christianity, or you find them mentioned in the Bible. Nobody knows the origin the name of Easter, but some suspect it is derived from Eastre, the Anglo-Saxon name of a Germanic goddess of spring and fertility, which dedicated a month corresponding the month of April. The people celebrated his feast of the spring equinox. Eastre tradition survive in the Easter rabbit, a symbol of fertility and colored eggs Easter, originally painted in bright colors to represent the sunlight of spring, and is used in shooting competitions Easter eggs or given as gifts. Even The Egyptians and Persians dyed eggs in spring colors and gave them to friends. ancient religions, festivals, including the return of the Greek legend of Persephone, daughter of Demeter, goddess of the earth, the world in the light of day. His return to the Greeks symbolized the resurrection of life in the spring after the desolation winter. By contrast, Christians celebrate a tortured man dying on a piece of wood and the Jews celebrate Passover, a god on his way to the death of babies. Morbidity! Instead of celebrating death, why not opt for the original Easter and admire the arrival of spring and renewal of life?

The ancient Saxons in Northern Europe worshiped the goddess when OEstre the spring equinox. Goddess Easter represents sunrise, spring and fertility, the renewal of life. The Anglo-Saxon Pagan offerings colored eggs to her at the spring equinox. They were placed in tombs, especially, probably as a charm of rebirth. (Egyptians and Greeks also were known to place eggs in tombs). Only later did the loot for themselves the name and religion grafted on a pagan festival. Equinox vernal: The early Romans used a lunar calendar in which every other month between 29 and 30 days. Inaccuracies of time product, which gradually fell over the stations. Julius Caesar reformed the calendar, changing their lunar base of the sun. The Romans established the day of the Spring Equinox that occurred March 25. The duration the year was 365 days, with an extra day of the year a leap year every four years, he added. This is the average length of a year, equivalent to 365.25 days, which came close to the real value of 365.2422 days. The astronomical vernal equinox occurs when the day and night seem to be more or less the same length of about March 21 and set the first day of spring (northern hemisphere). When the Sun crosses directly over the Earth Ecuador marks the Spring Equinox (in the southern hemisphere, the time is equal to the autumnal equinox). Translated literally means Spring "Spring" and the equinox means "equal night" because the sun is over Ecuador and day and night seems to be the same length. Your choice: Pagan Easter has done exactly that: the party. It produces an atmosphere of giving and happiness, a renewal of life. A moment of sex and love. They fun! Friday and Easter Christians, by contrast, represents a time of suffering minds Full morbid horror of a tortured man dying on the wood for the selfish in the sky, while flatter God with his own insignificance and suffering. If you do not accept their beliefs, so, sorry, you'll go to hell, a place of eternal torment. The pagan Easter celebrates the joy and life. The suffering devoted Christian Easter and death. Easter pagans celebrating a birthday. Easter celebrates the Christian burial. The pagans were given. Christians slaughtered. Fortunately freethinkers have a choice what to celebrate, believers are not. I chose to celebrate the first day of spring equinox the exact date, thanks.
