“I think you need to display more of a Christian attitude towards others.”
Could you explain how I have not???
Me: Why in the name of Jesus are you [the man in the article] doing homage to Ishtar, the babylonian god of fertility?
Martin Tell: “Easter is a pagan festival” [..] don’t condemn others
[DID I CONDEMN OTHERS? DID I SAY IT WAS A PAGAN FESTIVAL? NO.]
Me: You say “call it whatever you want”, but you say I can’t tell you what I call it? How is that for the glory of God?
Martin Tell: your narrow-blinkered interpretation [..] gloomy know-it-all [..] Jesus rose for everyone, not just those who are as smart as you
I DESERVED NONE OF THAT. NONE OF IT. AND THEN A BUNCH OF NAME CALLING BY SO-CALLED CHRISTIANS AS WELL! OUTRAGEOUS BEHAVIOUR. My comment “You need to get saved” was totally justified. Saved people would not manipulate someone’s words and demonize people like a no-good leftist. I have said NOTHING here you can use to justify your statement.
I believe you did. You accused Martin and every other Christian on this thread of "paying homage to Ishtar". I don't think that was either justified or appropriate.

That doesn't matter. A Christian attitude would be to turn the other cheek, would it not? From my point of view you certainly have not shown that attitude on this thread.
My comment “You need to get saved” was totally justified.
From my point of view it certainly wasn't.

Look in the mirror, my FRiend. From my point of view that is exactly what you did to every other Christian on this thread. By telling someone you don't know anything about that they need to be saved, you are in effect demonizing them. Are you not?
I have said NOTHING here you can use to justify your statement.
I think you need to go back and read the thread over and then maybe you'll see yourself as the rest of us have seen you.
This thread was not about "Easter" it was about the Church of England. Because another CHRISTIAN just happened to use the word "Easter" you went off on a rant about that as if everyone who uses the word is bowing before Satan.
Well I use it. As does nearly every English speaking Christian. I frankly don't care what the origin of the word is. Even if the word had pagan roots, the word has been effectively sanctified by God on the basis that the word no longer has any pagan meaning for Christians and it is the term commonly used for the celebration of our Lord's crucifixion and resurrection. Now if you don't want to celebrate that event, then don't.
I pray you have a Glorious Easter my Friend.
He is Risen indeed.
