You think maybe JeffyBelle is secretly trans?

Not that there's anything wrong with that!

"Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.

"Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother's eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye?

How can you say to your brother, Let me take the speck out of your eye,' when all the time there is a plank in your own eye?

You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother's eye." - JC speaking in Matt 7, 1

Yeah, but then what would Visitor do all day?

"A holiday named for the goddess is part of the neopagan Wiccan Wheel of the Year (Ostara, 21 March).[40]

In some forms of modern Germanic paganism, 'ostre (or Ostara) is venerated. Regarding this veneration, Carole M. Cusack comments that, among adherents, 'ostre is "associated with the coming of spring and the dawn, and her festival is celebrated at the spring equinox.

Because she brings renewal, rebirth from the death of winter, some Heathens associate 'ostre with Iunn, keeper of the apples of youth in Scandinavian mythology".[41]

Erroneous association with Ishtar

In 1853, Scottish protestant minister Alexander Hislop published The Two Babylons, an anti-Catholic tract. In the tract, Hislop connects modern English Easter with the East Semitic theonym Ishtar by way of folk etymology. For example, from The Two Babylons, third edition:

What means the term Easter itself? It is not a Christian name. It bears its Chaldean origin on its very forehead. Easter is nothing else than Astarte, one of the titles of Beltis, the queen of heaven, whose name, as pronounced by the people of Ninevah, was evidently identical with that now in common use in this country. This name as found by Layard on the Assyrian monuments, is Ishtar.[43]

Because Hislop's claims have no linguistics foundation, his claims were rejected, but the Two Babylons would go on to have some influence in popular culture.[44]

In the 2000s, a popular Internet meme similarly claimed an incorrect linguistic connection between English Easter and Ishtar.[33]"

"Cultural Fusion"... also the name of the wine in Britannia that year.

Also taken by very early progressive Brit rock band.

Hating history is SO... Republican!

A short message that even a Culturally Christian agnostic or atheist could love!

Perhaps not a Trumpublican, but hey, can't please everyone.

"Easter" became the English term for the Christian Passover (Pascha) through a combination of Germanic cultural influence and early English bible translations.

While most languages derive their word for Easter from the Hebrew Pesach (e.g., Pques, Pasqua), English adopted a pre-existing 7th-century Saxon term (Eostre) that marked the spring season.

Key Reasons for the Shift:

Cultural Fusion: Early Christians in England merged the celebration of Jesus' resurrection with the spring festival honoring the Anglo-Saxon goddess Eostre (or Ostara)."

"The manner and circumstances of the Messiah's death, as recorded in the Christian Gospels, were detailed in Hebrew Scriptures written centuries before Roman crucifixion was invented.

While Roman crucifixion was perfected between the 1st century BCE and 1st century CE, the Hebrew texts describing these events"specifically Psalm 22 and Isaiah 53"were written between 1000 BCE and 500 BCE.

Key prophecies and their fulfilment include:"

"Various scholars have suggested that the from the life' image of Christ imprinted on coins from the reign of Justinian II was copied from the Shroud.

A close examination of these coin images reveals a remarkable level of detail upon the face of Christ, including several features that replicate markings seen on the face of the Man of the Shroud. These include:
