    I think there's a few different variations on his birth. One that I read, suggested that the bright star that the three wise men followed was actually a conjunction of Jupiter, Venus and the star Regulus that occurred in the eastern, sky rising in the morning in the location of Palestine on April 17. 2 BC

    He hasn’t got a clue, he’s a heathen, pretty sure he used to sacrifice goats.

    No, Easter is another Pagan festival nicked by the Christians <laugh>

    That's the Spring equinox. when pagans celebrated Eostre, a northern Goddess, who's symbol was a Hare (Easter Bunny)

    Presume it has something to do with rebirth, symbol of the egg, new life.

    I.e. The end of winter and coming of the Spring.

    Could be but the way i heard it (and could kind of accept) as a 7yo in morning assembly was, the egg represents the stone which was rolled across the entrance to the cave that Jesus was interred in as it was oval shaped :grin:
