Title: Happy Easter!
Post by: BigRo on March 26, 2016, 11:46:29 PM
What does this day mean to you if anything? Has this day lost its value to a great number of people?

Most of the western world celebrate Christmas in style and Easter is becoming more and more an afterthought. Even pagans and atheists enjoy a good Christmas yet will feel pressured to wish people happy Easter even though Easter used to be and is also a pagan celebration!

I celebrated Ishtar. Tied my girl up by the wrists with her panties and drove it home. Hope I pulled out it time though, don't want to be celebrating her fertility.

Easter Memories

Easter has always been a fun time for children and their parents. It was great to hide Easter Eggs and turn the kids loose to go find them and put them in their little baskets. They weren't real eggs, of course. That wouldn't be much fun. They were the plastic kind with jelly beans inside. My wife made everyone in the house Easter baskets filled with all sorts of candy including the iconic chocolate bunny. Mine was bittersweet chocolate. I bit the bunny ears off first, then the head and so on.

Thinking of this makes me feel a little sad because there probably won't be a delicious Godiva Easter Bunny anywhere in sight when I get up in the morning. Maybe I'll have to go buy myself one. It will be discounted because I'm buying it after the event.

Parents taught their kids how to color real hard boiled eggs which later became deviled eggs or egg salad.

As a kid, I sometimes went to church/Sunday school on Easter Sunday wearing ridiculously expensive little outfits which I wore once and outgrew long before the next Easter.

One Easter, my wife and I dropped off my much younger sisters at Sunday school. While they were there, we went to a morning jazz club and had Bloody Mary's. Obviously, we were sinners. LOL

My boss is a modern Wiccan/Neo-Pagan/something?, and brings in gifts to celebrate Eostre/Ostara (true story)

Easter is not Ishtar and Ishtar is not pronounced Easter and there is no connection between the two.   This is all debunked anyhow. The only pagans celebrating Easter today are  those that follow modern corporatized garbage.  No one is gonna care about my words here anyhow LOL...I'm out.

Getbiggers care, and as skeptical, critical or ascerbic their responses (or trolling ;D) can sometimes be, I also see many respecting your integrity and passionate convictions.

For the Easter basket: My favorite historian of the Christian Church is Jaroslav Pelikan (who I got to "know" through the recollections of his family and students -- people I had the privilege to study under). One of his favorite sayings was: "If Christ is risen, nothing else matters; and if Christ is not risen – nothing else matters."

Happy Easter to you, and to all of my Getbig friends!
