This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Also, isn’t Easter more important? Everybody is born but only one primate came back to life, which is the important part.
Theologians have debated that one. I recently attended a service where the minister argued for Good Friday being more important.
Christmas is the Incarnation - so it's like arguing over the most important part of a purchase.
Christmas - money put on the table Good Friday - money taken Easter - Receipt printed
David Graeber’s “Debt” goes pretty deep into the implications of making this sort of thing a transaction
But if you had to pick one of those to define the core of Christian faith - like Passover defines the core of Judaism - wouldn’t it be Easter?
ETA: Watching the Rugrats nail someone to a cross to explain Easter would have been WILD
