I've never heard the term "Easter worshipers" till the other day...nor Christmas Worshipers, Hanukkah worshipers...Ramadan worshipers..etc.. sounds stupid phrasing it that way....

if you google those you get nothing except the references to the hillary and obama statements for Easter worshipers....guess they are REALLY smart....

Easter is a Christian Holiday, doesn't matter what you were "Sold", it doesn't change that fact.

And its Catholic priests because the other Christian religions refer to them as Ministers/Pastors/Preachers or other titles, different religions have different titles for their clergy.

scottw 04-24-2019 07:40 AM

can we just start calling hillary, obama and the left "government worshipers" whenever they gather in different places and pray or rally for the government to do something or does it have to be a holiday like "May Day worshipers"?

So we can be specific with the names of clergy ... but we can't cover
all those killed as easter worshipers even if we know ..

So explain to me how based on your statement that easter worshipers
doesn't clearly suggest those celebrating a Christian Holiday aka Christians

Yet the POTUS doesn't call them christians either but theres no issue ??

WDMSO, neither Obama nor Hilary would have EVER referred to the New Zealand victims as "Ramadan worshippers". Not ever. If you asked them why they would never refer to them that way, they'd say it would have been insulting and offensive. But it's more than OK to refer to Christians as such.


And they don't worship "Easter". They celebrate the resurrection and ascension of Christ. We don't worship candy or colored eggs or bunnies carrying baskets.

Phrasing it the way they did, is demeaning and trivializing. Everyone tells me what a brilliant speaker Obama was, so I can only assume it was intentional.

Hey, feel free to put words in their mouths why don't you. Jim, your ability to just make #^&#^&#^&#^& up and have total confidence in your speculation is utterly Trump like.

Easter is about the resurrection. The people there were worshiping the resurrection. Easter Worshipers.

The Associated Press used the exact same term after the Notre Dame fire.

This whole thing is just fake outrage and a device conservatives are very practiced at. Make a ridiculous grand conspiracy charge, i.e. liberals hate Christians and then twist yourself into a pretzel to spin everything to support the narrative.

wdmso 04-24-2019 06:04 PM

So in a nut shell

Scott's internet search cant find Easter worshiper used in a sentence conclusion Hillary's and Obama s Tweet anti Christian

Fisherman reinforces that Easter is a Christian holiday fact... conclusion use of Easter worshiper anti Christian

JIM finds hidden or subliminal message in Easter worshipers conclusion anti Christian

Potus or adulterer in chief aka savior of all things Christian

Fails to mention Christian or Easter in regarding the bombing

The above anti Christian investigators conclusion. On those facts IDK they must still be investigating

My proof is, and it's pretty solid as far as proof goes, is that neither Hilary nor Obama has ever once referred to muslims as "Ramadan worshippers".

Either prove me wrong, or admit I'm right, please?

"This whole thing is just fake outrage"

So you have the ability to read people's minds. Impressive.

The idiot mayor of South Bend who is running for potus, has publicly said again and again and again (before announcing his run), what a good guy Pence is. But as soon as he declared his run, at that exact nanosecond, he decided Pence was a gay-bashing hatemonger, and has been bashing Pence non-stop,

Now, this mayor went to Harvard and Oxford, and worked at Mackenzie. So we can assume he's sharp. And for some reason, he has concluded it will benefit his campaign in the primary, if he goes on a mission to tell everyone how horrible Pences views on homosexuality are.

So here's my question to you, Spence, is why did this very smart guy, conclude that his popularity among democrats would increase, if he relentlessly bashed Christianity?

Answer...liberals hate christians!!!

And he claims to be a Christian, and expresses that, by embracing late term abortion and by smearing a nice guy. Hooray!!


If you read every history book ever written, you wouldn't find a comparable case of an entire political party so willingly throwing themselves upon the sword. These crazy ideas will play well in places that they will win anyway (CT and CA), if you think that's the way to win in OH, NC, and FL, good for you...

Correct. Easter is the name given to the day, on which Christians celebrate he resurrection and ascension. We celebrate what we believe took place, not the day.

What matters, is that neither Obama nor Hilary would ever refer to Muslims as Ramadan worshipers. Liberals like Muslims, so they treat them well. Liberals cannot stand true Christians (because of abortion, gay marriage, etc), so we get the middle finger at every opportunity.

it's not evidence its a conspiracy draw conclusion in your Head AKA a lie why because those people killed were not killed during Ramadan ( Ramadan 2019 in United States will begin in the evening of Sunday, May 5 and ends in the evening of Tuesday, June 4

they were killed during Prayer so of course neither Hilary nor Obama has ever once referred to muslims as "Ramadan worshippers". .. ( is that prove enough how wrong you are?





again why no issues with Trump with mentions of christians or easter

PS here is a Trump fact I am sure you didn't know

U.S. President Donald Trump released an official statement from the White House marking the holiday, "As so many people unite to celebrate Ramadan, Melania and I join in the hope for a blessed month. Ramadan Mubarak." The statement, however, did not appear on either Trump's or the White House's official Twitter accounts - a rare move for the avid social media friendly White House.

he base wouldn't like that. would they

again funny one term is religious the other General


/ˈwərSHəpər/
noun
plural noun: worshipers
a person who shows reverence and adoration for a deity.

cel·e·brate
/ˈseləˌbrāt/

acknowledge (a significant or happy day or event) with a social gathering or enjoyable activity.
"they were celebrating their wedding anniversary at a restaurant"
synonyms: commemorate, observe, honor, mark, salute, recognize, acknowledge, remember, memorialize,


so Trump can say many people unite to celebrate Ramadan is fine

but the Term easter worshipers Bad .. and with that I am done

Jim in CT 04-25-2019 07:26 AM

Wayne, they referred to muslims as
muslims, as they should
have. when christians were attacked, rather than referring to them the same way, obama and hilary invented a new term.

you are the one, not me, who is physically incapable of admitting that someone on their side did something stupid and offensive. Enjoy your denial fest.

Fools led by the right wing media, following blindly as usual.

It takes a true savant of exquisitely attuned grievance collection to read an individual reference to “Easter worshippers” as an attempt to avoid acknowledging Christianity.

The most important and oldest festival of the Christian Church, celebrating the resurrection of Jesus Christ and held (in the Western Church) between March 21 and April 25, on the first Sunday after the first full moon following the northern spring equinox.

“Easter” has no other meaning.

If anything, “Easter worshippers” puts EXTRA emphasis on the religious nature of the attack by pointing out that it happened on a day of special spiritual meaning to victims.
It implies: Not only did you attack Christians, you did it today of all days.
