Happy Easter

[burning blue soul]

The scriptures tell us that during JC's 3 day bender absence, he visited Hell to try and convert the folk down there to repent.
Now, not being the religious type I'm not going to poo-poo this version of events.
But, let's just say it happened.
The main man, and offspring of the big boss upstairs has somehow sneaked into Hell (the home boy turf of his Dads biggest enemy) to convert the masses down there. Seems a little unbelievable to me.
It just seems that the Devil and his bouncers need to take some kind of accountability for allowing this to happen. How has he sneaked in through the doors?
Has He Tom Cruised his way into Hell on wires and breathing apperatus?
Then the Devil stands by while JC preaches to the folk he's spent a great deal of effort to get down there into his place. A total disregard for his members and their environment.
Seems to me like the Devil might currently be actually working in the MCFC ticketing office!!!!

Bacon butties and champagne? I'm going to the wrong church!

It’s literally at dawn though. Not so bad when Easter is early as it’s 6:30am ish, but having champagne at 4:30am isn’t that great if Easter is later on!

Happy Easter, Bluemooners. I'm just back from celebrating the resurrection of Jesus, with fellow believers.

Easter blessings to you too.

How many eggs did Jesus eat ?
Often wondered.

The Tesco express near us is open, is every Easter Sunday. Might be worth trying one of them instead?

I'm not sure about eggs, but he may have been a fan of bacon.



“And if thy oblation be a meat offering baken in the fryingpan, it shall be made of fine flour with oil.”

Leviticus 2 verse 7, King James Version (KJV)

Some right old bollocks being talked here, Easter is a new imported version of Eoster which focused on Rabbits and fertility.

Chocolate in the terms of modern Easter is about chocolate for the huge majority of people.

Religions have always coopted local language and sometimes the associated traditions. I'm not aware of any Christians too fussed about the fact that the days of the week are named for a combination of gods from other faiths. The Christian celebration in question predates the use of the term Easter and In the Aramaic, Latin and Greek worlds, Easter has never been called Easter it's still called Pascha so reflecting it's origins in the Jewish feast of the Passover. At Constantine's behest the Council of Nicea decided it wanted to detach it's remembrance of Jesus from the Passover, controversial because many early Christians understandably identified the events of holy week with Passover. At that point with a new date to celebrate the feast the ability to differentiate it further with a new name, at least in some places, was probably a bonus.
