He said: 'Consider, for example, the Christian festival of Easter, in which the ancient fertility rites of the spring equinox are today cunningly disguised as chickies, eggies, and bunnies. Indeed, the very name Easter is a corruption of the name of the great Near Eastern earth - MAR. 17, 1983 THE BEVER PRESS mother goddess, Astatrte.' It should not surprise us, then, that Easter found its way into Christendom's calendar, not by any command of Jesus Christ or his apostles, but through pagan practices. Clergyman Alexander Hislop wrote: What means the term Easter Christian Chaldean forehead. else than Astarte, the queen of Tieaven whose name, as pronounced by the people of Nineveh, was evidently identical with that now in common use in this country (England(. That name, as found by Layard on the Assyrian monuments, is Ishtar. The worship of Bel and Astarte was very early introduced into Britain. Such is the history of Easter.

These facts may be shocking to persons who have not been aware that Christendom has a pagan heritage, but they are facts that should not be lightly dismissed.

The Greeks '.and Romans used the same ,type of buns or cakes. .Pointing this out, The Ency. ;Britannica, 1959 edition, Vol. ,4, p. 381, states: 'Like the Greeks, the Romans ate bread marked with a cross, at public sacrifices, such bread being usually purchased at the doors of the temple. The cross bread was eaten by pagan Saxons in honor of Eostre, their goddess of light.' Among some who Iprofessed to be Christians "these buns or cakes were . shaped as the pagan Romans shaped them, in the form of the phallus. 'There is some reason,' says the book A Discourse on the Worship of Priapus by Richard Knight, 'for believing that, at least in some parts, the Easter cakes had originally a different form, that of the phallus. The custom of making cakes in the form of the sexual members, male and female, dates from a remote antiquity and was common among the Romans.' Since Easter was a fertility celebration, it is not surprising that some professed Christians made the buns in the form of a phallus and others, as is done today, put a cross, the symbol for the phallus, on CLEP Tests $1,205,253.12 $1,205,253.12 4710 Total Warrants Issued $ Trsnsfer to Mult Capital Imp. 6 Equip.
