If Mort Divine ruled the world

Easter worshippers: People who worship Easter. I wonder who Easter is? Must be some new religion.

It sounds ironically secular, like a bunch of consumerists who worship being able to eat chocolate eggs on their day off work.

"Behold, the Great Easter Bunny."

Linus is a "Halloween Worshipper."

 

[Einherjar86]

it doesn't sound secular at all. When people say "Easter service" they're not talking about families hunting for colored eggs.

You guys are fishing so hard.

 

[CiG]

Shut up public holiday worshippper.

I don't make the rules for how adjectives and nouns work in the English language, nor did I write the definition for "worship[p]er". I didn't even have any hand in the fact that page after page of Google returns show that in 2000 years of Christian history, there seems to be no example of Christians ever referring to themselves as "Easter worship[p]ers" that can be appealed to to demonstrate that it's just an idiom or a colloquial turn of phrase. Such a strange fabrication.

I mean, we could just chalk it up to Obama/Hillary sharing a D grade Twitter team. Hanlon's Razor and all that. Honk honk.

Praise Clepe.

it also just sounded weird
the original context should have just been something like "christians at easter church service" or something

 

[Dak]

Praise Clepe.

I like this name better than "Honkler" or the full "ClownPepe." Praise Clepe.

Then you're not looking hard enough. It pops up all over the internet and in books. The problem is that "page after page" is now swamped with idiots complaining that Clinton and Obama didn't say "Christian."

What a fucking partisan shitfest.

 

[Blurry_Dreams]

What a fucking partisan shitfest.

ehhh
American politics is always a fucking partisan shitfest

 

[CiG]

What a fucking partisan shitfest.

I agree, Clinton and Obama are very partisan when it comes to addressing crimes against Christianity.

I think this crazy person invented the name Clepe but I could be wrong.

Hate to break it to you, but you guys are the ones perpetuating partisan nonsense here. Regardless of Clinton's and Obama's intentions, their tweets did nothing to erase Christians' identities or beliefs. And saying "Easter worship[p]er" isn't secular at all; claiming so is irrational.

I was joking when I said it was secular, did you lose your sense of humour in the Vox comment sections faggot?

> over 300 Christians murdered
> churches bombed
> "Easter worshippers killed on a day holy for many faiths"
> not even a mention of a church in the Tweets
> no erasure or obfuscation, move along pls

> not even a mention of a church in the Tweets

[CiG]

This election cycle is going to be lit.

 

[CiG]

Show me where "church" is mentioned in the Tweets.

 

[Einherjar86]

It. Doesn't. Matter.

My grandma is catholic and calls going to church on Easter.... “easter worship”

(hope Krow doesn't mind me using this)

And my point is that churches were bombed. Why the fuck do they need to mention churches? Nothing about your comments makes sense.

 

[CiG]

Hell, saying "Easter worshippers" in the same Tweet as saying it's a holy weekend for many faiths makes it even less specific.

Because in similar statements about attacks against Muslims and Jews they mention synagogues and mosques. Because the former leader of the free world and the almost leader of the free world should address directly an attack on an entire religion, because they do so any other time.

Words matter, remember?
