But more importantly, Easter was not for Christians predating emperor Constantine and the Council of Nicea, if you know your Christian history. They observed Passover. Of course the Romans wanted to distance themselves from the Jews. As did Martin Luther (a fanatical Jew-hater) later.

Paul and the early Christians kept Passover and the Days of Unleavened Bread. They did not keep Easter.

Really false facts, indicating that Christians celebrating the Resurrection are really celebrating a pagan goddess or similar nonsense. David J. Meyer, Last Trumpet Ministries International, PO Box 806, Beaver Dam, WI has squandered whatever credibility he might have previously enjoyed - as has anyone claiming him as authority.

Easter was not for Christians ..

Horse hockey. You confuse a name with an event.

if you know your Christian history..

you'd not have lost the sacrament of Holy Eucharist.. among other things.

So I think history is not the primary concern here.
