Easter

A holiday featuring fertility symbols such as eggs, rabbits, and maidens dressed in white that pagans celebrate, named in honor of the godess of fertility known as Eostre, Astarte, Ashtoreth, Isis, Vishnu, Venus, etc. depending on when and where the pagan is from.

Nowadays, most of the pagans pretend that Easter has something to do with Jesus so they can pretend to be Christians. They've already given Christendom such a bad name doing things like this that it isn't even worth their effort to pretend to be Christian any more, so they only continue the custom out of habit.

I prefer honest pagans and Real True Christians to those who pretend Easter has something to do with Jesus.
