Reflections From a Murky Pond

Well, it another Easter weekend, and we should be thanking Judas Iscariot for it. And Christians might want to start thanking him for their redemption and their religion itself. Remember, with Judas’ “betrayal,” there’d be no Easter and no Risen Christ to center a church upon. 😉

Yeah, Judas is the most reviled biblical figure, with the only somewhat close second being Ramesses II. And yet, both did nothing that wasn’t required to bring the Christian God’s plan to fruition. It kind of sucks how they’ve been portrayed throughout history.

Happy Orthodox Easter

Hey! Thanks to the Great Schism of 1054 AD between the Roman Catholic Church, obviously based out of Rome, and the Orthodox Church, based out of Constantinople, we’ve got two Easters this year.

So, we all get to celebrate Easter a second time!

Poor bunny. OUCH! But then, this sort of mistaken timing is bound to happen, since Easter is based upon a lunar-solar hybrid calendar – the date of Easter falls on the first Sunday after the first full moon following the vernal equinox – whereas our normal, everyday calendar has been solely solar-based in the West since 45 BC!

But, as an odd side note, this poor bunny could have been saved this year by simply stating that you’re celebrating Easter under the auspices of the Eastern or Oriental Orthodox calendars. Easter this year for them is on the 24th of April, not the 17th. 😛

I Had Some Seasonal Funnies Left In The Basket

I had a few Easter funnies left in the basket as it were, partially due to time constraints and partially because I see no need to gratuitously offend Christians during their holiday. So, here they are. Enjoy.
