I learned that Easter has it's roots in celebrating the fertility goddess Ishtar, that Christians should be celebrating Passover rather than Easter.

YOu are right......Christians should do that. Do you think though.... that there is harm in allowing children to hunt easter eggs? It is not about the bunny but about Jesus though.

Yes... I read it and it is true I guess.... Maybe I am using the wrong word... How about Passover... i meant the same thing though... I do not worship a bunny... which is the symbol for fertility. I worship the resurrected Savior.. his name is JESUS. bUT YOU ARE RIGHT THOUGH...The devil will always try to mimic anything that God does good... he will give a counnterfeit for it.
