Caulfield: The way Easter bounces around the calendar tells us a lot about humanity. It's on the day that Jesus rose from the tomb. It's immediately after the first full moon following the vernal equinox or some such. And..AND...It's still always on the exact same day of the week. Meaning: Try as we might to give ourselves over to gods and nature, we still cannot contain our inner control freak. Frazz: I'm not sure that's the message humanity wants you to take from Easter. Caulfield: Let them just try to control my thoughts.
Ummm, Jesus was a Jew and first celebrated the Jewish passover on Nisan 14, a full moon, dismissed Judas then celebrated a simple bread and wine celebration with the faithful 11.This year that date (Passover /full moon) was last Monday, so the anniversary of his death was Tuesday, resurrected Thursday.That it is moved to a Friday annually has NO scriptural basis, neither do the pagan fertility symbols of rabbits and eggs …Then again the pagans don’t care what the truth is.
