Explaining the Mysteries of Easter
Easter was always a mystery to me growing up. Why did it never fall on the same day each year, and what's the deal with rabbits and eggs? I explain all in the Montgomery Advertiser. Dang, story has now gone into the Advertiser's archives.
You're article was interesting. Easter, as you obviously know is the celebration of Christ resurrection. thank you for coming over to visit yesterday's post. I normally don't post serious things but yesterday and today I have. Hope to see you again soon.
Oops...just got back from reading Nick's article and realized I am confused. Christmas is liturgically based and Easter is lunar based. Good grief! Then there's that whole thing about cute, furry, long-haired mammals laying eggs.
Love your article, Nick. You are so funny, clever, and talented.
I am heading over to read!

Hate spam. Recently had to turn moderation on as well. Turned it off again, and so far the spammers have behaved. Only time will tell, though...
ReplyDeleteInteresting!
