cute! but...easter is a goddess. The Yeshua(Jesus) is known as the lamb of passover(Pesach) and the lamb of God. Easter has no relation to this. Please let us stop this ignorance and let go of pagan-catholic names/cultures like 'easter' that is of pagan origin.

I would like to request that further conversation be moved to notes between us.

I appreciate your strive to clear the air of ignorance, and I had researched this same subject on the origins of the word "Easter" last year with my friend. Understand that the connection between Easter (Ēastrun) and the Goddess Ostara (or Eostre ) is a theory that is still debated and not fully set in stone. We have to remember that the roots of the word are from a Proto-Germanic word "Austron" meaning "dawn" or "new day". It is very possible that the name was originally suggested purely by the word's meaning, and had nothing to do with the ancient-times goddess from Babel, who was not the only ancient goddess that was named such because of the meaning "dawn".
You may or may not be right. Regardless of the original intentions, what Easter is and means today could be entirely different than what it used to be. This does not make our joy and celebration any less meaningful. Even if it was intended for something else, it IS part of our culture today. On this day we've grown up with sharing sweets, going to church, being with family etc. That is one of many variations Easter is celebrating in today's culture.

"It doesn't matter what it means to us. It only matters what it means to Him (God)."
please watch this video (it's long but worth it if you want to find the truth about the origin of modern traditions, its very intresting): www.youtube.com/watch?v=VGgt_d…
Jim Staley with historic facts (things literally set on stone xD) traced down the pagan gods still worshiped/observed today. Easter is Ishtar, she has had many names but she is always represented by the crescent moon and star/sun and fertility, her myth says she was send back to earth from heaven as an egg and she turned a bird into a egg-laying rabbit, exacly the same easter bunnies we see in our modern culture. Also she is the goddess of the east and her husband Baal, the sun god, was also the god of the west. All this is not a coincidence, satans planned it all, he creates these demonic religions and traditions.
Sorry to bother you with all this but I find it very disturbing everytime I hear/read this "happy easter". It would be nice (for the glory of God) if all christians started to abandon their traditions of pagan origin for God.

This really does remind me of something-- so I will relate this to the use of animal sacrifice in ancient Judaism. This was a very common thing among most pagan cultures of the time. God used this cultural practice in His own plan to teach the Hebrews one of the ways Jesus relates to all of us, as a sacrificial lamb, long before Jesus was even born. God can take something even if that something was originally created 'outside' of Him, and turn around to be used in a good way. Now it's fully your choice, if you don't want to call it "Easter" because it bothers you, you don't have to. Some Christians call it Resurrection Sunday for that same reason. But when we as Christians have a festival and celebration such as this, we are not teaching our kids about the long-gone pagan implications that are now just about treating the kids to candies, chocolate and an scavenger hunt, but are in fact focusing a LOT on Jesus and his sacrifice and return for this time. The truth is, we don't know exactly what God thinks about this, but by the way it is handled seems like another 'event' that he's turned for his benefit. This time of year means a great deal to my family and me, and it's not because of the 'hidden meaning' behind bunnies and eggs and this ancient goddess that frankly would have faded out of all human knowledge if it weren't for a select few. Jesus is the center, even if "Easter" wasn't originally meant to be that way.
You could also look at it this way..... it's just a word. Languages as we know them today are comprised from so many different ancient cultures, religions and peoples that have influenced and shaped them over thousands of years. Did you know "Saturday" means "Day of Saturn", one of Rome's important pagan gods? Does that mean we should stop using this word all together? We have a LOT of words that have been influenced by pagan religions and cultures. Note it's not the way they originated, but the way we USE them that is important. By these standards, speaking anything other than Hebrew would be considered pagan practice and unpleasant to God. The Jews in Jesus' time spoke Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek, the very language of the extremely hostile Rome that did not agree with the Jews (that's putting it lightly). Jesus spoke Greek as well, now if he knew it was against what God would like, would he not have done so?
We must be thoughtful about these kinds of angles. It spirals downhill very quickly if we're not careful, and the concept of "it originated from pagans therefore it should be abandoned", well suddenly you're talking about most of any language we know today.

Um animal sacrifice is something God seem to have ordain after the fall of Adam and Eve. Abel gave animal sacrifice to God and He was pleased unlike with Cain that gave fruits. So animal sacrifice did not originate in pagan cultures, Noah the father of all humans after the flood gave clean animals in sacrifice to God. In hebrew culture God ordain them to sacrifice an innocent animal to die in their place because the price of sin is death. This ended after Jesus' sacrifice to God because he was completly sinless and perfect and took the sin of the world so no more sacrifices are requiered for our forgiveness of sin, accepting Jesus, and following the commanments, is our sacrifice.
I'm not saying to stop using words of pagan origin, what is wrong is to use pagan names in things that are related and refering to God and Jesus. Languages were created by God, with time some mixed and words were added, etc, so whatever language we speak wont bother God as long as we arent saying bad offensive things.
It is not ok to use the proper name of a goddess when refering to Jesus' ressurection, everyone knows "Easter" is a name of a goddess, so its meaning is still the same and wont change, also its meaning is unrelated to Jesus instead it could be offensive/annoying to him. After all God hates when we mix the unholy traditions with what is holy, even if its just a name and our intentions arent bad. (that is written in the Bible, cant remember the verses but they are on the video I sent you, please watch it (all) x3)

The use of animal sacrifice still was a symbol, in a way that it led up to Jesus. Yes in the lower story it was a way for the ancient Hebrew people to wipe away their sin, but in the upper story Jesus paid for all of it, including the ones that came before him. Anyway..
The video is nearly two hours long and I'm in class right now, so I don't have that time currently. This seems like something that should be debated between two very well-versed, fully educated people concerning this subject and honestly I have not looked into as much. I would like to see both sides so that it is fair, spoken from people who've studied this subject for a very long time, (right now I can't, but it should be an interesting search).
