What is the origin of Easter Eggs?

Answer 1

Easter is the name of the English Goddess of Light. Her annual Spring-time festival was ancient before the Christians appeared and caused the people, in the words of the Venerable Bede, to "celebrate the old feast in the spirit of a new solemnity." The Easter eggs, magical ones, in a grass-lined basket, symbolize new life in the coming of Spring. Like the swag and the rest of the trappings of Christmas, Easter eggs have no connection to Christianity beyond the silly little fictions the Church officials have made up to account for them.

An "Easter" egg is a symbol for the goddess Easter which is a variant of Astarte, the goddess of the Sidonians representing sex, reproduction and new life beginning in Spring. Also noted variants are Ishtar and April. Note the connection of all these names. Also is the rabbit/bunny which are prolific reproducers and are viviparous (offspring born live) not oviparous (hatching eggs). The eggs which are symbolic are fertilized eggs, when hatched produce the offspring (such as chicks).

Since the celebration would occur at about the same time as the discovery of the empty tomb where the body of Ἰησοῦς Xριστος was purportedly laid, for some odd reason it is still named for the pagan goddess.

Answer 2

it all came from a long time ago,in the past children used hard boiled eggs for a game, the game represented: the egg was the rock that rolled away from jesuses tomb.

so this is how you play, they get the eggs and roll it down a hill, whoevers egg reaches the bottom 1st wins. and i guess for modern children to them is silly because they only care about their x box! sorry if i didnt explain it well, im terrible1
