As shocking as it is, not everyone spends their holidays the same way you do. I don't mean to come off sounding like a douche, but my wife was really upset that she missed her family egg painting tradition for the first time in her 20 year long life and she was looking forward to sharing that treasured family tradition with the newest member of her family. I really don't see why you'd risk upsetting her more by basically calling her feelings on the matter inconsequential because you don't happen to do anything with the day. To be honest, I would have let you be with it, but replying to someone defending Trish's position to push your own "But I don't do anything..." stance is a bit annoying. Oop. Sorry. Didn't mean to come off as a total jerkbag. I honestly don't know - or rather, didn't know - of anyone that took Easter, so... well, seriously. It really, really took me by surprise.

Play me on XboxLive, Dammit! My DevArt. Yeah, I know. I'm ashamed..

Jesus dies on Friday, ressurects on Monday. What happened on Sunday? See? That was my pooooint. Actually Craig and Jin, a slight misconception with that. Good Friday: Jesus is crucified. The first day. Holy Saturday: Jesus is still dead. The second day. Easter Sunday: Jesus is resurrected. The third day. So when the Bible states the Jesus arose on the third day, it means two days later from a Western perspective. It stems from the understanding that the Hebrew day began at sunset (hence why, in the Catholic Church, the Easter Triduum lasts from Holy Thursday to Easter Sunday; it seems like four days to us, but it's actually three days from the Hebrew perspective: from Thursday evening to Sunday evening). jinsoku wrote: Forgive me for sounding like a total douche, but... who takes Easter so seriously?

Well, given that there's the whole 'died for the sins of all humanity past, present, and future' thing and the Resurrection and the Ascension into Heaven...it's basically one of, if not THE (depending on who you ask) most important facet of Christianity. So yeah, it's a serious deal. o.o and is also officially confirmed as a Catholic as of Easter Vigil so woohoo Last Edited By: Ultra Sonic 007 04/15/2009 12:33 AM. Edited 2 times.

I guess that's what I'm getting at, y'know? Peter Cottontail isn't as marketable as Santa Claus. Plus, which one do you think kids (and, via demanding to the parents) go for more? Hunting for Easter eggs (and getting lots of chocolate, which is part Halloween) that don't really seem to have that much of a connection to Christ's Death and Resurrection? Or 'FREE TOYS OM NOM NOM' amidst a backdrop of gift-giving to all, peace on Earth, good will to all men, and that sort of thing...which at least has some narrative significance to the birth of Jesus? I'm guessing the latter.

The less crazy "OMG SHOP SHOP SHOP ALL FLUFF ALL FLUFF" commercialized holidays, the better. I'm just... surprised. Not just Jin... he's Evil Jin. You're just stupid.
