Easter is not a pagan holiday CB and you know it. It is not even CALLED Easter in most languages. Claiming that the use of pagan terms, words or even symbols make one a pagan is laughable - like most of the wack-a-doodle weirdness that spews so often by those who agree only that they think the Catholic Church is “pagan”. They cannot agree which version of the Bible is definitive, they cannot agree which sect, denomination or creed is correct, they argue about worship service - attend at all? Attend on Friday? Saturday? Sunday?

But the one thing the few but loud agree on is that to be Catholic is to be NOT a “Christian” and to be Catholic IS to be “pagan”.

But if the use of pagan words is the issue, then why have a month of “January” named after Janus? Or a day called Thursday honoring Thor?

No, your claims are laughable and sad. And held be just a very tint fragment of the real world. Thank God!

Please show me where I brought up Easter in this thread. Surely you aren’t trying to cross thread again are you? And just where do you get off telling me what I know or don’t know. In these parts they call that making it personal.
