Happy Easter Folks!

[waregim]

The greatest festival in all history, shared throughout the world.

The Day of the Risen Sun.

The day the forces of evil were defeated, and Helios regained in strength, lengthened the day, and brought sustenance to the earth.

And even rabbits layed eggs.....

[CheGuevera]

I ate on of the eggs

I hope you all realise that in reality there's not really such a thing as an Easter it's all just consumer marketing.  It's there for a reason, to make loads of money and sell chocolate eggs.  To think that there's such a thing as what they make out, to think all this religious thing is real.  Pull the other one, telling old stories from hundreds and hundreds of years ago, there's nobody around from those times to prove that any of that stuff happened.  You can write anything you want into a book, doesn't mean it's real like all fictional stories, some of them are very good but it doesn't mean there was really such a thing.  Creativity can be a powerful weapon, if you can convince a thousand people that something is real then it's a powerful weapon to use in the world.  Chocolate eggs will just pile you weight on and all this sugar is bad and rots your teeth and means you'll have to have more work done next time at the dentist, not good I'm sorry to say.  Live and learn if you ask me.

Leave it to you to take the fun out of everything...

All solstices/equinoxes have their festivals.

End of year, Christmas, actually Saturnalia. Helios is badly wounded in his perennial battle with the Serpent. Shortest day. New year begins.

Planting season: Helios is rejuvenated, nature is replenished, and birds start laying eggs again. Days are mid length. Fertility goddesses worshipped.

Summer Solstice - Midsummer festivals, still celebrated in scandanavia, though more widespread in ancient word.

Harvest time. From Oktoberfest to Thanksgiving, to Halloween. Greeks aparently made it a special holiday in their mystery religions.
