sukkot: Can you read? I said a seminary was for clerics. I studied Physics and Applied Maths at Uni. I now travel to Naija among many other countries and have advised and delivered training to many of your major institutes. So yes you need that chance to learn something from the village school! :-) |

The question is this: Do origins of such celebration matters? Supposed you saw a piece of candy lying in the gutter. Would you pick up that candy and eat it? Of course not! That candy is unclean. Like that candy, holidays May seem sweet, but they have been picked up from unclean places. |

Easter - (Western Churches) Easter is calculated as the first Sunday after the paschal full moon that occurs on or after the vernal equinox. If the full moon falls on a Sunday, then Easter is the following Sunday. The holiday can occur anywhere between March 22 and April 25. |

cryslar22: The origin of ANY celebration matters to the people who celebrate it. A Christian celebrations origin matter to Christians. An Islamic celebrations origins matter to Muslims. Even a tree worshiper or magic spirit or mami waters beliver (THERE ARE STILL PRIMITIVE AND SAVAGE BELIEFS LIKE THESE PRACTICED IN SOME BACKWARD PLACES EVEN TODAY!) will find relevance in the supposed origin of their particular superstition. 1 Like |

Vanpascore: Easter is celebrated on a Sunday. As there are not an whole number of weeks in a year either it would end up being on a different weekday or a different date. Jan 1st is not always a Friday. 2 Likes |

sukkot: Less than I would get paid in Europe but thats ok because I love my work and travelling. Why? Do you work for free? What do you work at anyway? Or perhaps you think only Nigerian teachers should be paid? You really need to be able to think matters through logically before randomly reacting. |

The two basic truth here is *Jesus was nt killed on a cross at all *The gregorian calender was man-made, the moon is nt rigid so ll rotate backward, that's simply d reason the hijira calendar should be used. |

Easter was a pagan festival stolen by the founders of Christianity to celebrate the death of Jesus Christ Of course jesus never existed. Israel was subjugated by the Roman Empire and they kept record of everything There was no mention of Jesus in their record so...... |

Nnaabros: Why are you equating the name of a CELEBRATION with the names of imaginary gods? Is it because they sound vaguely similar to a few people? This post is really faaaar out! Lol |
