Today is not Easter, it's Cesar Chavez day.

I did get some great Caesar Chavez chocolate bunnies.

Yeah, I noticed that. When he rises from the dead, I'll pay more attention.

Wonder why Google decided to rub our noses in our traditions? Seems like the whole leftist world is intent on destroying any remnants of family... I guess so we'll be better little commies :-( ...Jim Thompson

CC had one really great line. Talking to a bunch of farm workers, he told them not to use birth control because it "reduces the numerical power of the poor."

Happy Easter to all. Today I changed my home page from google to bing. The Chavez thing is just over the top. BING had some nice eggs. Nothing really religious but nice.

I'm finding that some evangelical lunatic has taken it upon himself to be t he last word on the comparative mythology of Jesus Christ on wikipedia by t rying to disguise a sermon as an unbiased overview of the knowledge base. H opefully wiki can be persuaded to delete his garbage.

Wow, Wiki being unreliable on controversial issues? Who knew? Stop the presses!

Well that's just it. It shouldn't be controversial. They should just cite t he various archeo-historical studies and leave it there, instead of pretend ing to have reached an incontrovertible conclusion like the evangelical lun atic who /thinks/ he's gotten away with something.

It has to do with non-sectarianism. Easter is sectarian, Chavez day is non-sectarian.

All the cathedrals in Europe were built by lunatics by your reasoning.

non-sectarian.

Easter is certainly not sectarian[*], however I will grant that "Chaves day" (whatever the hell that is) is secular, if that's the word you were looking for.

Definition of SECTARIAN 1: of, relating to, or characteristic of a sect or sectarian

Nope

2: limited in character or scope : parochial

and nope

May come as a shock, but nonsectarian is a word:

adj. Not limited to or associated with a particular religious denomination

Then standby for another shock:

Easter n.

1. A Christian feast commemorating the Resurrection of Jesus

primary definition and understanding of the word

No argument there...

So not only did Chavez top Christian Easter but he topped spring solstace too?

Doesn't celebration of spring solstace go back to way before recorded history?

As soon as mankind began to cultivate food crops, spring solstace got to be of huge practical importance.

Rabbits, eggs and grass symbology came from ancient pagan celebration of the indeniably important natural holiday.

It was an "auspicious day" long before the earliest concepts of a judeo christian god even existed.

Yet Chavez upstaged it by being born?

ROFL!

There is no such thing.

There is a spring equinox, This year it was on 20 march in the northern hemisphere.

Neolithic architecture suggests that it may.

Not really. rules for when to plant what vary with geographic location and climate.

so important you missed it?

indeed.
