I guess that all depends on how you look at it. STORY TIME!!
As most people can figure out, Easter is quite Pagan (and commercialized to hell). Pretty much everything about it, even the name (derived from the Goddess Eostre and the festival connected to her), is Pagan. Christians were the ones who decided to make the connection between Easter and the resurrection of Jesus and they only did this to convert Pagans ("Hey Pagans! You're celebrating birth and renewal? SO ARE WE!!).
There is nothing Christian about Easter. Easter is only "about" Jesus because Christians wanted to ease Pagans into Christianity (and even then, with all of the bunnies, ducklings, chocolate, eggs and ham, its hard to focus on Jesus at all). Easter is not even mentioned in the Bible (the celebration anyway; the one time its mentioned, its actually a mistranslation of the word Passover) and everything that Christians do for Easter is either outright Pagan or specifically banned in the Bible (or both):
Easter Eggs: Pagan
Easter Egg hunts: Pagan
Hot Cross Buns: Pagan and specifically banned in the Bible (Jeremiah 7:18)
Easter bunny: Pagan
Sunrise mass: Pagan and specifically banned in the Bible (Ezekiel 8:15-18)
BTW...1500TH POST!!

This is my war face.
This is what happens to trolls who mess with me.
If I might add in on this stimulating insight into the truth behind Easter, much in the same way that Christians celebrate Christmas (also based off of Paganism by the way. Goodness, these people can't be original about anything, can they?) as the supposed birth of Christ, (which it isn't as no one really knows when Christ was born.), so too was Easter decided as the day that Christ was resurrected by those happy-go-lucky folks of the Roman Empire during the time of Constantine.
Really quite fascinating how so many Christians are so completely ignorant of their religion's true origins.
My thanks to Xey Oiz for the awesome new set.

Kick out The Easter Bunny
320 years have passed since the coven sank into the dark
I may have been born in The United States, but running through my veins is 70,000% UK blood.
Here's something from my blog:

More interesting is how most people don't know what the word "pagan" originally meant. If memory serves, it was akin to calling someone a hick or quaint, given that polytheism and pantheism held on longer outside of Roman cities.
Can't surprise me with that kind of stuff, though. I once had a classmate who honestly thought that because people from Canada were referred to as Canadian, then the nation's/state's true name must be Canadia. None of us ever managed to convince her otherwise, sadly.
Happy Easter to my AF family
Happy (late) Easter to everyone LawL I was out hiking that day...it was awesome
