Longestpants Posted March 23, 2008 Posted March 23, 2008 On this day ~2,000 years ago, Jesus Christ was resurrected on the third day following his crucifixion by Rome. To Christians, this event symbolizes, among other things, sacrifice for our sins. But you don't have to take my word for it! Link

sparkomatic Posted March 23, 2008 Posted March 23, 2008 still waiting for someone to explain to me how a giant rabbit hiding candy-filled eggs whilst carrying a funny basket symbolizes the crucifixion of the Messiah Oh, and the tree covered in lights in my living room equating his birth last year there was a ruckus from people on base not wanting a santa claus at the "holiday party" due to and I quote "Christian overtones"...you have to be kidding me...I have only read the Bible 7 times cover to cover but still missed that part about the 8 tiny reindeer...
Viggen Posted March 23, 2008 Posted March 23, 2008 Oh, and the tree covered in lights in my living room equating his birth From what I can remember my history teacher telling me last year in 8th grade, it was some Germanic custom and that some member of the British Royalty liked the idea of a pine tree in there house and something about Hessian soldiers putting decorating a tree during the American Revolution and thats all I can remember in this run on sentence.
sparkomatic Posted March 23, 2008 Posted March 23, 2008 Any festival that involces chocolate is ok by me Oh, please dont mistake me, any holiday has potential, especially when time off is involved!
