Our Pagan World: The Easter Myth Exposed<br />
----------------------------------------<br />
<br />
Description:<br />
<br />
Each year, throughout the Westernized world, many Christians<br />
observe a celebration which has become popularly known as<br />
"Holy Week". This much-anticipated occasion begins with Palm<br />
Sunday, which commemorates Jesus Christ's entry into<br />
Jerusalem, and culminates seven days later with the joyous<br />
Easter Sunday mass, which celebrates our Lord's glorious<br />
Resurrection from the dead. In many households, Christian<br />
and non-Christian alike, this final day of celebration often<br />
includes the presentation of woven Easter baskets filled<br />
with chocolate rabbits, small toys and other assorted sweet<br />
goodies, to eager young children. The day's events may also<br />
include the traditional Easter egg hunt, during which time<br />
these same children scurry about looking for an assortment<br />
of colorfully-painted chicken eggs, which have been hidden<br />
by their well-meaning parents, or by others.<br />
<br />
Year after year, parents and children perform these same<br />
rituals on "Easter Sunday", without giving the matter very<br />
much thought. Some Christian parents may even assume that<br />
these practices are based upon ancient Christian traditions;<br />
but I must ask you: Have you personally ever taken the time<br />
to investigate the actual origin of the Easter celebration,<br />
and some of the activities which have become associated with<br />
it? If you did, and if you are a Christian, you would be<br />
very surprised, if not shocked, by what you would discover.<br />
<br />
This five-part series, "Our Pagan World: The Easter Myth<br />
Exposed", will take you on an amazing, informative journey<br />
through history, and reveal the shocking truth behind one of<br />
the holiest days on the Christian calendar. After having<br />
read it, you may never view Easter the same again.<br />
