Easter around the world

Apr 8, 2023, 7:44 PM

Easter for everyone!

Here, we have Sunday services,

Easter egg hunts,

and we eat up!

But to each their own. In France, they cook 15,000 egg omelettes. Why? Idk, because they’re French I guess.

Their churches are also silent in France on Easter because all the bells fly to Rome, and bring candy back for the children. Nice.

In Czechoslovakia, a little light spanking is in order every Easter. Ok.

In Russia, their lambs come in butter

In Sweden and Finland, you don’t have to wait until Halloween for witches. They come out at Easter.

In Florence, Italy, Easter means Fireworks.

How is South Carolina not in on Easter fireworks?

In Hungary, not only do they water their crops, they water their girls.

Again, how is South Carolina and Myrtle Beach not in in this watering of women for Easter tradition?

In Greece they fire rockets at each other. Like, a LOT of rockets.

In India and New Guinea chocolate melts, so there it’s the Easter cigarette tree.

In Ethiopia, everyone gets a piece of Dabo for Easter. A Dabo is a giant sourdough loaf. I’m sure it has something to do with Jesus. Same as cigarettes.

In Guatemala they make street carpets. Not out of fabric, but out of flowers, and sawdust.

In Bermuda they fly kites. You know, because it’s Easter.

And this, this I have no idea what it means.

But however you celebrate it, Happy Easter!

I was a child. "Son, if they put you in a room with an anvil you'd eff it up or lose it."

It probably started innocent enough, 'Honey, since it's Easter Sunday (not the Sabbath) I'm going to buy you and the kids new Spring outfits to wear to church this weekend. Then some wayward pastor who wanted to draw a crowd decided to provide an activity for the children so they hid eggs for a treasure hunt.

Pretty soon you got this fat guy dressed in a red suit who has the power of God to keep up with everyone on earth and serve justice by rewarding good deeds and punishing bad ones. If you fail to get into the spirit and max out your plastic, you're a scrooge.

Since everyone gets behind on being thankful we need to ensure they all get caught up so let's have a day set aside to celebrate giving thanks.

Roman 1:

23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.

Where's our creeping things? Oh yeah, Halloween, right?

Yep, I got that about secular folks long ago.

If you made that up, copyright it.***

I have a long illustrious history of making stuff up.
