>>It is not even called easter in the eastern Christian world

East is the English word for it. In Greek the east is called ANATOLI.

Easter comes from the Germanic name for the month of April.

The Greek w Pascha is derived from Hebrew Pesach (פֶּסַח) meaning the festival of Passover. In Greek the word Anastasi, (upstanding) is used also as an alternative. Anastasi as in rise as in rise from the dead.

I don't believe in UFOs and I don't see how my post is a DU troll post. Is that something you throw around to end discussions?

In any case how is it a DU troll statement like I made that instead of czar the term commissar is better suited to what Obama is doing? Appointing political officers aka commissars to enforce the party line. That is what the commissars did to the czarist forces in Russia for example.

Quack, Waddle,... oh look it's a god-Emperor, czar/Caesar.   FAIL.
 
>>If not for him there would be no Christianity today
 
Really?  And here I thought my reconciled relationship to the Lord and Creator of the Universe was due to HIS work-product:  the intervention and sacrifice of The Word made flesh.
 
Thank you for sharing your "faith", in the czar/Caesar/god-Emperor, comrade.
 
No Sale.

Oster, which comes from the Babylonian: Ishtar.

“Baal” being a Hebrew word meaning “Lord, Owner, Master, Posessor”... Czar.

Oh look, the Emperor is in his underwear... AGAIN.
