>> “The New Testament says the son of God rose from the dead on Easter” <<

.
Uhhh No!

The NT says: (Mat 28)

“1] In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre.

[2] And, behold, there was a great earthquake: for the angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat upon it.

[3] His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow:

[4] And for fear of him the keepers did shake, and became as dead men.

[5] And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified.

[6] He is not here: for he is risen, as he said.”

.
Thus, long before it began to dawn on the First Day of the Weeks, he had arisen as the third day ended (sundown “saturday” by the pagan calendar) just as had been prophecied.

My how so-called “Christians” love their mythology!

Walking Dead ping!

Bill O'Reilly complains that The Walking Dead was shown on Easter Sunday and at the same time as The Bible on the History Channel.

Please let me know if you would like on or off The Walking Dead ping list.

This weak article was written about TWD for one reason only, to generate article hits, for revenue.

And maybe many of the WD viewers were already familiar with the bible and how it turned out. Why watch a hollywood version of something they've likely studied all their lives......?

I have written this before; but, I'll repeat. I and my hubby are NOT fans of the zombie genre. We watch The Walking Dead. Why?

Well, the story is basically about total societal collapse. Now, it is couched in Zombie Lore; but, it is about what happens when disaster strikes and humans are left to deal with the disaster and each other without an outside authority. This is engrossing. Yes, there is blood, and gore and zombies; but, there is also a very engaging story with characters written (and acted) in such a way that you care about what happens to them.

When I first suggested to my hubby that we try the first season of The Walking Dead (which was on Netflix), he gave me a very strange look. Now, it is one of the few shows we look forward to. BOR has not been keeping up with what has been happening with this show. It now beats primetime shows on the major networks with regularity; and, this episode was the season finale. That means a lot of people were going to tune in.

So, speaking from my own experience, The Walking Dead needs to be experienced before dismissing it simply because of the subject matter.

My husband and I did, for a slight moment, wonder why the season finale would be on Easter, regardless of whether The Bible was on.

That being said, I’ve read the Bible and am pretty familiar with what happens. I’ve seen many movie versions and I’m sure they will replay this one.

But I couldn’t miss the end of the season of The Walking Dead! Seriously, I really like the show! Also, as many have pointed out, Walking Dead has many references to good/evil, The Bible scene, etc

Also, I watch BOR, even though he is full of himself. And he always says not to degrade his show unless you watch it. So maybe he should watch Walking Dead before writing things like this.

Sorry O’Reilly, but for “spiritual experience.” I go to the source material and read the Bible...

For watching” “flesh-eating zombies”, horribly inaccurate versions of the Bible, and cheap thrills” I go to TV...

...and watch your antics.
