Yeah, i never said Easter is Passover....

i said Passover is Passover....and that means the part about remembering the flight from Ejypt

and for Christians, that's only the beginning (because of the last supper) which then leads up to the actual Easter/Pascha celebration (Christ risen)

i NEVER said "Easter evolved FROM Passover"....Passover is PART of the Easter celebration and it is THAT part, the part of passover, that i said we'd all celebrate the same thing therefore should be same day


there is no "parallel" it is what it is, Passover = survival of the last plague over Ejypt to finally be free...there's no amount of saying the word "parallel" that is going to change that fact lol

Gentiles don't even factor into the equation, towr....stop twisting my words and mixing irrelevant things XP



for the record: when i spoke of Easter evolving to what it is today, I was refering only to this portion
towr
 
how we celebrate Easter inherits a lot more from pagan spring-celebrations than passover. Like the name (in English). And Easter eggs, Easter bunnies, etc.

NOTHING to do with Passover at that point, only Easter (Easter and Passover are separate things, but Passover is a PART of Easter)


on another note:

That's awesome, Shadow! I look forward to playing it when you're done :D!

Oh, okay- I guess I was misunderstanding what you were saying then (and possibly you were misunderstanding what I was saying) :sweatdrop:


...and I just realized I completely forgot to wish you guys happy Star Wars Day yesterday, too. Oops. XD

Well yeah, that's what it evolved TO, but the root is the same...

On a totally unrelated note,
I still don't have final grades from one class (???) but otherwise I'm solidly in the A- to A range with one B-ish. And hopefully my semester abroad this fall will be my last!

And just saw Captain America: Civil War. No need to go on a whole thing if anyone is against Marvel's 'cinematic universe' but I would say it was very well done, on par with the work so far.

Congrats on the grades so far! When those results the last can't be far off the mark either.

Any real fun plans in the offing for the summer for any of y'all? Family's having a minor memorial day get together to see my parents Norwegian exchange student Herman off before he goes home. A couple possible family 'reunion' type gatherings in the works ...

And it's raining outside. But warmer, and I'm not having to bike to school in it so I can just enjoy the good bits :)

It's raining here, but not at all warmer. XD

Two of my friends from church are getting married next week- so that'll be nice. ^_^ And my family is having a weekend camping trip sometime in July. Aside from that- not much planned for summer as of yet.

I haven't had a good camping trip in entirely too long. Used to be all the time when I was growing up. Ah, well.

i'm not twisting my own words, towr....you are and have several times throughout the years and i've put up with it....well not anymore
it's hard to believe you're not doing it on purpose considering you can obviously read
all i did was make one simple dumb comment "huh, this is interesting" and you completely derail it into something else entirely for what purpose? to just make me look stupid so you can feel superior or some such nonsense? i don't even know, but whatever


it's about time i stop coming here anyway....hardly here much as it is...figures things would liven up when i'm not around lol though usually there's nothing more than adding to word association thread and i was done with that years ago anyway, there are so few of us left, was bound to get pretty drull and i personally just dont feel like having those revival battles anymore either X)


if anyone happens to miss me at all, you can find me on skype by my msn name in my profile....might drop by on rare occasion like the others who've disappeared, but i don't know

other than that, take care, guys! hope all goes well for you <3

gratz on your grades, Dark and that movie was pretty fun
Have fun on your trip, Elys~

^_^ byes~

Yes you are.

May 3 2016, 04:48 PM we're all celebrating the same thing, all over the world, all Christians and all Jews (minus the Christ part)
May 4 2016, 05:40 PM Easter has it's roots in the Jewish Passover [..] so it should still be the same Passover we'd all be celebrating, just with additional celebrations atop that.
May 5 2016, 04:40 PM you can't erase what Passover really is underneath it all just because we've added celebrations to it lol
May 5 2016, 04:40 PM we've ADDED traditions to jewish celebtations

You're always trying to twist your words into something else, when in hindsight you want to forget and deny what you actually wrote. And then you blame others for not having read your mind and having the temerity to read what you actually wrote instead of what you wish you'd written in hindsight.

Yeah, interesting but not imho accurate. You'd think people could have a discussion about that, but with you that always proves impossible. God only knows why, but you always take any dispute about what's true and factual as an attack upon your person and then get defensive and belligerent to the point it's impossible to talk with you.

and you completely derail it into something else entirely for what purpose?
I don't think I've derailed the topic at all; the topic was history of Easter and to my best understanding the extent to which it is still the same feast the Jews celebrated. That's all I've ever thought the topic was, and all I think I've tried to discus.

Quote:
 
to just make me look stupid so you can feel superior or some such nonsense?
I honestly don't get where you get that idea. The only thing that makes you look stupid and petty is the way you react when someone disagrees with claims you make. I really don't understand why you get so defensive over that. Either you're wrong and accept that and learn from it, or you're right and support it with argument and evidence. But instead you just throw out the ad hominem attacks and try to play for sympathy.

Well, good bye, I hope you have fun in your personal bubble of reality where all the things you believe are fact and no one ever dares to disagree with you.

Awww. Sad day. Kari :waves:


In other news, haven't really mentioned this anywhere because still kinda have trouble processing it...

So I had my bike vandalized. Didn't take anything or seriously damage the bike itself. Just poked holes in the tires and poured what seemed to be an entire bottle of some lotion all over it.
I... Still can't make sense of it.

Congrats on the grades Dark!

Sad to see you go Kari. Fare thee well.

Not too much planned for the summer- though it seems I'll be getting a comp sci internship at the local library soon. (just need to wait for the person in charge to talk with the tech people and see what exactly needs done).

Ouch, that stinks Dark. I agree though, doesn't make sense at all. People can definitely be very strange....

Comp Sci internship?

At the Library??

That sounds awesome, honestly. I'd live in a library if I could.

And thanks guys. It's especially annoying because the hole in the back tire was big enough to be a bit much for the patches in my patch kit :P
