Today is Easter back home! And I have no idea if people here celebrate it but I figured I do so others can celebrate it with me if they want!!

So we'd be like coloring hard-boiled eggs and like Akito said, hiding chocolate filled plastic eggs and having kids find them. And there's all kinds of stuff about birth because it's Buddha's birthday!! And rebirth because Jesus came back from the dead... which makes him like a zombie! And I guess we gotta hide the eggs because he's a special zombie! That eats eggs instead of brains. And his special zombie-ness is why we eat motzah ball soup and unlevened bread. Because he was on a special zombie diet. Or maybe it was Buddha who was. I forget.

And the then gods gave us candy for being good and so we all had to keep our karma in balance or we wouldn't get any chocolate because the Easter bunny would eat it all. :(

Anyways...

Happy Easter!

[[ooc: yes I do know most of the religious origins of the actual SEPERATE holidays but this is meant as a joke and I'm really really really sorry if it offended anyone. Feel free to smack some sense into her if you want.]]

Yeah... most religious stories do come off sounding pretty crazy. But you know what they say, it's the crazy stories that always end up true to bite you in the ass.

Or something.

... I'm sure Christianity doesn't follow that story.

He wasn't a zombie.

[doubleppk]

Oh it doesn't?

Everyone keeps saying that. Was he a skeleton?

"He resurrected and ascended into heaven to be seated at the right hand of The Father."

He was fully human. Rabbits and Easter eggs actually have nothing to do with it. It's just for entertainment purposes, I assume.

ooc: Nice, how was it?

[doubleppk]

Hmm. I see.

They don't? That kind of seems less fun.

heavenly.

To attract a younger audience and follow behind their beliefs.

Religions will do anything to obtain more followers.

Awesome <3

[doubleppk]

That certainly seems to be the case with cults.

[segnato.livejournal.com]

They're the same to me.

[doubleppk]

That seems to hold true for a lot of people.

[segnato.livejournal.com]

There are too many religions out there. It's impossible to know which ones are real.

It's better to assume that they're all false.

[doubleppk]

But what if they're all real?

[segnato.livejournal.com]

It's practically impossible.

[doubleppk]

Well, parts of them maybe? Because they can't ALL be wrong. Normally I'd say sure that makes sense but it's like curses and legends and crap. Sure normally it sounds crazy but then you experience some of it coming true. And yeah, not all of it is real or comes true but some of it does, so it can't all be wrong. So maybe parts are true, right?

[segnato.livejournal.com]

Maybe all connect to one.

I can say that I've experienced a curse.

[doubleppk]

Yeah! Exactly!

Oh... what kind? Like Mr. Reborn's?

[segnato.livejournal.com]

Yes.

Though mine was corrupt.

[doubleppk]

Corrupt how?

[segnato.livejournal.com]

I received the curse... partially. Therefore, mine was the weakest out of the rest.

[doubleppk]

Oh. What happened? Did it go away or something?

[segnato.livejournal.com]

Wear off? It wasn't supposed to, originally.

Someone insisted on taking my place with the intention of receiving everything, leaving me free of it. Backfired.

[doubleppk]

Oh. I see. And there's no way to fix it?

[segnato.livejournal.com]

No.

It's a permanent scar.

[doubleppk]

Ah. Ouch. Sorry to hear that.

[segnato.livejournal.com]

The experience made me stronger over the years.

[doubleppk]

Sounds about right of most curses I think. So long as they don't kill you.
