Since the greek word for Easter is Pesach why don't you celebrate passover? Why change the day? Its always been 14 Nissan. Why change it so its on the exact same day that pagans celebrate? Friggin' hypocrite.

Duh. We celebrate the New Passover, the Resurrection of Jesus Christ. He died on the old Passover, but was brought to life on the New Passover. On Sunday.

There are no pagans. Only freaky "believe anything" Christians like you think the pagan gods are behind every corner, waiting to get you if you dye an egg. The pagans had spring feasts as well. So what? They are gone now, their temples and names but a memory. Except for those like you who keep them alive as a boogieman to validate their own insecurities.

Well good. You'll agree with then since Easter means the peshach season that nowhere in the NT is Easter (ressurection day) commanded to be celebrated. Especially on the same day pagans celebrate their solstace. Yuk.
