    What's your excuse? This better be good. :rolleyes2
    Its good friday because Jesus sacrificed himself to save us from sin
    I would love to be happy, but unfortunately I'm too busy being awesome and kicking your ass at everything

    Just a question in passing, how come Easter time changes from year to year? Do we not know exactly when Jesus was cruxified?

    From everything I've learned, the overall concept of Easter came from a Wiccan celebration of spring, which is where all the ideas bunnies and the like came from as bunnies are meant to mean fertility, which in turn is a big part of springtime in many respects.

    Take care all.

    *Scratches head*

    Did anyone notice how I... ya know.... posted the etymology of Good Friday and put a link to to wikipedia back on the first page?

    Heh, I like how in wikipedia's Easter entry, a picture of an excessively cute ceramic easter bunny is put under the header of "Germanic Heathen Festival".
