Christmas and Easter…pagan holidays??!!?
I just watched a documentary that claims Christmas and Easter are pagan holidays that were adopted by early christians. Easter was a pagan fertility festival that involved orgies and virgin sacrifice. Pagan rituals were based on seasonal / celestial events and the pagans used the first day of spring (spring equinox) for this. The main fertility symbols were the egg and the rabbit (as in, “they reproduce like rabbits”). I was skeptical at first, but then I started thinking about eggs and rabbits and how those two things DO bring to mind fertility (I grew up on a farm and rabbits really do just have sex all day!), and I could think of nothing that they would have to do with Jesus!
From the internet:
The ancient goddess, Eostre, a Saxon deity who symbolized new life and fertility, was the key symbol of this celebration which was also known as Ostara.
Does anyone know if any of this is true and what bunnies and eggs have to do with Jesus and God? Are we worshipping pagan gods!?

Serious question for Christians?
Leviticus 23 lists many holidays most Christians incorrectly refer to as Jewish holidays. Right there it says they’re the Feasts of the L-rd. He claims them as His Feasts; not Jewish Feasts! Why don’t Christians celebrate them? You refer to yourselves as following G-d, so why do you celebrate Christmas, Easter & other non-Scriptural holidays? Don’t claim the Old Covenant is done away with, either…because verses 14, 21, 31 & 41 clearly say these are permanent Feasts; meaning they don’t stop because Jesus died on the cross. I would like serious replies. Scripture also says not to mention other gods. Easter is based on a pagan goddess. Christmas is also based on a false diety. Are you celebrating the Scriptural Feasts G-d ordained? Why, or why not?
Are you noticing how your response says “They’re Jewish holidays”? Scripture says these are G-d’s Feasts. you’re still thinking Jewish vs Christian. These are Biblical holidays; not Jewish ones. And, if your church DOESN’T celebrate them, shouldn’t you ask them why not? Jesus celebrated them, and you claim He was Christian.
