| | Easter 2006 - The complete guide to the easter 2006 |
 | | Easter and the holidays that are related to it are moveable feasts, in that they do not fall on a fixed date in the Gregorian calendar (which follows the motion of the Sun and the seasons). | | | Easter 2006 is a Christian holiday commemorating the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead three days after | | | Eventually, all churches accepted the Alexandrian method of computing Easter, which set the northern hemisphere vernal equinox at 21 March (the actual equinox may fall one or two days earlier or later), and the date of the full moon was to be determined by using the Metonic cycle. |

| | What is the origin of Easter? - ChristianAnswers.Net |
| | The Bible says that he was "a mighty one"[1] Jewish tradition indicates that Nimrod was a tyrant "who made all of the people rebellious against God."[2] It is evident from history that Nimrod was not only a political leader, but also the lead priest of a form of occultic worship. | | | "Easter" is simply one of the names of a woman who mightily deceived the world and whose religion has caused untold suffering and misery. | | | The name "Easter" has its roots in ancient polytheistic religions (paganism). |

| | The Easter Bunny A Dangerous Tool From Satan! |
| | As new church members, not even officially recognized as "Truly Saved™," the Henderson family had only settled their lovely Christian estate in Exodus Acres two weeks before they were visited by the church's Salvation Squad. | | | This has been evident from 1923 to present time in modern churches where so-called "Christians" display the Easter bunny or pictures of bunnies in their Easter Sunday service programs. | | | So when little Stewart Henderson's Sunday school teacher overheard the boy talking to another child about having a bunny rabbit, she immediately took up the cross of Jesus Christ and alerted church authorities. |

| | Easter Bunny - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | The original Easter Bunny myth comes from a pagan holiday which was celebrated on the Vernal Equinox. | | | The idea of an egg-laying rabbit came to the United States in the 18th century. | | | This is a common practice even in non-Christian households, as Easter has started to become a more non-sectarian festival, along the lines of Halloween or Valentine's Day. |

| | History of the Easter Bunny - Animal Life |
| | Children behaved themselves, believing that, if they were good, Oschter Haws would lay colorful eggs (symbols of rebirth) for them in a nest the children had provided (usually their hat or bonnet, placed in the barn). | | | When the Christians moved into the pagan's territories, they decided that the custom of coloring eggs was not harmful and adapted it to their own festivities. | | | Easter is celebrated on the first Sunday following a full moon, so the moon was used to figure out the date of Easter every year, and the hare (not the rabbit) was the symbol of the Egyptian moon. |
