Some people say "Happy Resurrection Sunday” instead of "Happy Easter" because "Easter" has pagan roots and is not mentioned in the Bible.

What do you say?

I was on a conference call at work yesterday with two other guys. One was in Brooklyn and had a name that strongly hinted at a Jewish heritage. The third guy was a random Midwesterner. He joined the meeting and asked how our Good Friday was going. The Jewish guy didn’t respond and I had a good laugh to myself.

no foul there, when I lived in South Florida the Jews were very militant about throwing their holidays in your face and trying to force you to acknowledge them, and feigning offense if you said anything about yours, ex., "Merry Christmas" had almost been banned when I left there, never saw any that were offended by accepting Christmas bonuses from work or paid Christmas holidays off though

Don't think you would find one amongst them turning down the bonus,gifts or paid vacation. It says alot about someone's character when they take offense at a mention of a religious holiday while enjoying some of the benefits resulting from that holiday.
If I know someone is Jewish I will ask them about their religious celebrations and what plans they have. I don't plan on walking on eggshells around them though at Easter, Went or Christmas.

Pretty much every single Christian holiday was a pagan celebration first.

I think we should be careful about celebrating tomorrow because it is Adolf Hitler's Birthday.

Let's just hold off on Easter until next Sunday, which is STILL only one week after Adolf Hitler's Birthday, but, heck, do it anyway.

Our children are watching us. If we celebrate on Adolf Hitler's Birthday, what kind of message does that send to them? I'll tell what kind of message - and the message is - Happy Birthday, Adolf Hitler, many returns.

I'm not comfortable with that.

I have never heard someone say Happy Resurrection. Definitely smells of Reddit.

Satan thrives on creating division among Gods people.

Don’t be a part of Satans wicked plan.

you're probably also not a devout, mature Christian.
