“Easter occurs on different dates each year because, like the Jewish Passover, it is based upon the vernal equinox, that dramatic moment when the hours of the day-light and the hours of darkness at last draw parallel and then the light finally and triumphantly wins out.

It's a cosmic, solar, and lunar event as deeply rooted in religious traditions originating from sun-god worship as one could conceivably imagine.” YearsFirstsDifferentMomentsLightLastsWinningHoursReligiousDarknessSunImagineEventsMoonWorshipSpringDrawsTraditionFollowingFixedDramaticSundayCosmicRootedEasterParallelsFull MoonReligious TraditionsEquinoxSun God Author:Tom Harpur

Somehow I don't think even Public Information could turn that into good copy.” IfsThinkingMindBookMomentsTurnsSoundInformationOughtScaredDramaticPhrasesCopiesAdmittingHistory Books Author:David Weber
“There is too great a tendency (perhaps encouraged by popular journalism) to deal with the dramatic moments, forgetting that these are not always the most significant moments. ...
