Passover is a Jewish celebration.

Well, Christians aren’t the first ones to celebrate one of their gods dying and coming back to life.

Jew ran companies making a mockery of our religion and brainwashing Christians with this creation decades ago.


So the conspiracy of no meat on Fridays was a creation of a struggling Jewish fisherman and a pope to stop people eating meat on Fridays as a penance for Lent, and increase fish/seafood sales.

There’s just too much weird shite, where does he come from, where does he live, and where in the hell do Easter eggs come from?

What does a bunny have to do with Easter anyway? And where do the eggs fit in? Easter traditions make no sense


Pagan tradition, fertility, spring-time plant growth.

The timing of Easter is based on when Passover occurs, but the name of the holiday and the bunny ritual is based on the pagan spring holiday of Oestra (or however it is spelled).

Why though? Where did the fricking bunny come from?


Because rabbits are known for being very fertile.

Happy Ostara, Spring equinox celebration, Folklore: Often represented as a maiden bringing fresh life, accompanied by a hare (representing fertility).
Modern Interpretation:
While the historicity of the goddess Eostre is debated, modern practitioners use this time to celebrate the return of light and warmth. It is closely related to the themes of Easter, with the "Easter Bunny" having roots in this, and other fertility traditions.
