Christianity EtcThe Real Meaning Of Easter Or Eostre by Reverend(op): 10:06am On Apr 07, 2007
Anglo-Saxons worshipped and held ceremonies during April or Eostremonath in honour of the goddess Eostre.

Eostre is a spring/summer goddess, who's veneration during April, Eostremonath represented the re-birth of life and nature after the harsh weather of the winter months.

The egg, which may be a symbol of Eostre, is believed to represent that very re-birth. The Anglo-Saxon calendar gives evidence to support this.

The Heathen year was split into two seasons, summer and winter, spring and autumn were basically just aspects of the other two. Winter started in October and lasted for six months, the first month after the six 'winter months' was April or Eostremonath, which is the start of the coming six summer months. So as the first month of summer is the
month of Eostre, it seems reasonable to believe that she represents that re-birth of summer.

Another symbol that may have been sacred to Eostre is the hare, which eventually became the Easter bunny of today. In the cult of Eostre, the hare may have been a symbol of fertility. Eaten at Easter are Hot-Cross-Buns, which also have their origins in Heathen lore, originally these buns were pagan offerings. The cross upon the buns is said to either represent the four quarters of the moon or the horns of a bull, if the latter is right this may suggest that bull/oxen sacrifice was practiced in honour of Eostre, something, which we know was common amongst Anglo-Saxons.

The Christian church eventually took over the festival of Eostre, the incorporating of Heathen customs into early Christianity in England was carried out on the orders of Pope Gregory. As the festival of Eostre was about celebrating life and it's re-birth, the Christians found it easy and convenient to swap Eostre for their own symbol of re-birth, the resurrected Christ, whilst retaining the name Eostre or 'Easter'.

There you have it. the real meaning of Easter!

Happy Eostre cheesy cheesy cheesy

MouthAction is as important as any other sexual technique! Those of you who deem it as a dirty practice and evil should really seek help from a specialist.

You are going to lead a very sad and unfufilled sexual life undecided

BusinessRe: Starting Mcdonalds In Nigeria by Reverend(m): 9:13am On Apr 07, 2007
There is another side effect of McDonalds that I see in London amongst the African community. They eat them on the tube and just dump the carton, paper bag and any un-eaten food on the floor of the tube, bus or in the street!

Some parts of East London are starting to look like Lagos!

I would ban fast food joints!

@Shahan

Surely you are walking in the same sand storm as the people you are addressing?

It is like children in school saying something like 'my imaginary friend is better than your imaginary friend'

Pointless as you are arguing about which imaginary pretend invisible being grin grin grin grin

They are both pure fiction tongue tongue

It is sad that people spend so much of their time looking for something that does not exist, whilst wasting the precious time they have on Earth sad sad

Why would the USA want to invade Nigeria?

Christianity EtcRe: Pre-Marital Sex Is Not Fornication by Reverend(m): 4:14pm On Jan 13, 2007
I think that instant online internet marriages and divorces should be made available.

For a small fee you can get married (print out the certificate at home), have steaming hot passionate sex and then apply online for an instant divorce.

This could be the big business idea of the 21st Century!

If you were not near an internet connection when you were feeling Hot, you could send an sms message.

I would charge a flat fee of $4.99 which would include the instant marriage service, printable certificate and divorce papers.

There would be a special offer of $99.00 per Month which would include one marriage and divorce per day,

Mastercard, Visa and American Express would be accepted. Pay cash at the postoffice.

Anybody want to invest as a partner?  grin grin grin grin


Scenario

Man: 'Come on Sexy, lets do the business'

Girl: 'Are you crazy, we are not married and according to the Bible that would be a sin and we would fornicate'

Man: 'No, problems baby', 'get your stuff and and jump on the bed whilst I get us married online!'

Keyboard noises, printing noise, condom packet opening etc etc etc (smell of Old Spice)

Man 'Here we go baby, it's all legal and above board', ' who's your daddy?'

Lots of wet squelching noises and load moaning later!

Girl: 'Where are you going?'

Man: 'Just a second baby', ' I have to go on the internet again'

More keyboard noises and printer whines away!

Man: 'OK, we are now legally divorced', 'Now get your clothes on bitch and leave my flat'

Girl: 'OK, I am going'

Man: 'Same time tomorrow night?'

Girl: 'OK' love you

Man: 'Love you to'

You should all realise that this comes from old pagan worship and has nothing to do with the modern God.

It is all to do with the Sun.

O God of fire, (the Sun)
Send down your fire (Rays)
Turn me to fire (Warm me up)
In this mountain of fire. (Where I live)

Take no notice of Shahan. The problem that he has is that his are the only valid points and everybody elses are speculation.

I think the question you have asked to be sensible and logical. That is why Shahan will not answer you! He can not answer sad sad sad

I do not believe in Jesus also, but I think that as a figure representing good he is a positive Icon. But then again watching 'Thomas the Tank engine and Friend's on TV also makes me feels good. I don't believe that there are talking steams engines though grin grin

Supposedly we are born sinners according to the book of myths. If this is the case, surely we should be stoned to death when we are born.

Christianity EtcRe: Pre-Marital Sex Is Not Fornication by Reverend(m): 9:30pm On Jan 11, 2007
The truth of the matter nobody is wrong and nobody is right. If you think that pre-marital sex is wrong then don't do it, but don't preach and force your beliefs upon other people.

It seems that most of the arguments on Nairaland are from Christians that can not agree with each other. Everybody has their own interpretations of the scriptures and think their opinion is the correct one. They argue for days about the slightest of differences. Very funny tongue

It is so refreshing to be free from the religious mumbo jumbo and be able to think for ones self!

You should keep the Bible out of your Bedrooms, Knickers and Bras undecided

Sex and religion do not mix. Even when it between little boys and Catholic priests lipsrsealed lipsrsealed lipsrsealed
