I've noticed that every time good friday rolls around (the day Jesus was crucified), the day becomes overcast. Has anyone else experienced this or is it just me?
 
It's already been good friday here, and it was an absolutely beautiful day!
 
I fail to see a connection (even a theological one) between Jesus and cloudy skies.

Edit - And yes, I enjoyed a day at the pool, from whence I burnt my chest.
 
Indeed, It was a beautiful day today...

Up until about 6pm... in which we got a small thunderstorm.
 
Oh, and at like 7pm, I saw a face in the clouds. It told me a jew/foreskin joke before it dissapeared.

Why does Jesus dieing make a day Good? as in "GOOD" Friday? I don't get it.
 
Nope, haven't really noticed that.

But I do this strange unexplainable urge to eat candy eggs...

Yep, sounds like a pretty stupid name. Can't see anything good about it.
 
Jesus died...thats good! but then he raised from the dead and came back to haunt us...which was bad D:
 
Which is why every Monday, we lock up our houses and stay inside to protect ourselves from the Jesus vampire that hunts little children for their blood.

thats why i hate mondays :\ always wondered
 
It's because with his death, Jesus is supposed to have defeated sin.
 
*looks at the forums*

Nice work with the whole defeating sin thing, asshole!
 
How can Jesus be a vampire? He's a Vampire Hunter, havn't you ever seen the movie: Jesus Christ: Vampire Hunter (The funny thing is, it's a real movie, and jesus wears a leather jacket, not supposed to be funny, but it is.)
 
and to top it all off, Ova stirs up shit and knghenry is back...
coincidence? :O :rolleyes:
 
Your sig makes my eyes bleed, Dr. Freeman.
 
Sticking your finger up a sheep's bum on good friday makes you fertile.

*checks watch* How am I gonna get a sheep at 9:30 pm...?

Ah, Easter. The day we commemorate the death and ressurection of Jesus Christ... by telling our children a giant bunny rabbit left chocolate eggs in the night.

I don't know where the bunny thing came from... but there's some tradition as far as the eggs. I never knew it before. Go wikipedia!

Easter Egg tradition

For centuries, it has been the custom of many Christians to share dyed and painted eggs, particularly on Easter Sunday. The eggs represent new life, and Christ bursting forth from the tomb. Among Eastern Orthodox this sharing is accompanied by the proclamation "Christ is risen!".

One tradition concerning Mary Magdalene says that following the death and resurrection of Jesus, she used her position to gain an invitation to a banquet given by Emperor Tiberius Caesar. When she met him, she held a plain egg in her hand and exclaimed "Christ is risen!" Caesar laughed, and said that Christ rising from the dead was as likely as the egg in her hand turning red while she held it. Before he finished speaking, the egg in her hand turned a bright red, and she continued proclaiming the Gospel to the entire imperial house.

There is also a supposed tradition that the remnants of Christ's heart remain inside an egg-like vessel, and that this vessel is the basis for "the Sacred Heart" motif in Catholicism. In some legends the Sacred Heart exists as a guarded sacred object or a metaphysical essence, passed from hand to hand, with Mary Magdalene being listed among noteworthy caretakers.
 
So... shouldn't all our eggs be white and red? And not green and purple and other various colors?

It's been expanded upon, and other people have changed it into something different. I don't see the problem.
 
It's been beautiful all week here, I dunno what kinda of disgusting sin infested area you live in
 
The sky was ****ing yellow today, yes, Yellow.
 
Man, I'm pissed. I've got a party tonight. On Good Friday. I'm not gonna miss this party (it's gonna be epic) but I'm also not gonna miss the Easter Hunt. So in the end, I guess I'll have to get like 2 hours of sleep :(
 
Easter isn't even on the right date. It should be based on passover, but the Catholic church screwed that part of Christianity up too.

Actually, it probably did a good deal of good for them. While many were willing to convert to Christianity, giving up winter and spring fertility rites didn't seem like such a good idea. Christmas and Easter ended up replacing them. Bits of old tradition remain: mistletoe, gift giving, easter bunnies, etc.
 
If yesterday was good friday, is today awesome saturday?
 
Good friday was another workday, I have no clue of the weather - I was explaining how to cook Salsify for the millionenth time :|
