foot, meet mouth; please insert...

i realized i said the stupidest thing... ever... in the previous post:

chanukuh: begins on 25th day of the Jewish calendar on Kislev. basically, approximately in december before xmas

passover: around the time of nisan, i think the 15th? (starts 23rd of april this year)

easter: feast of eshtar... basically, 27th of march this year i believe

in other words, the actual date for "resurrection day" and "crucifixion day" is a mere 2-3 weeks in difference.

i had wondered why easter wasn't celebrated half a month later...

oops...

goes to show just how little i know about the jewish culture... i should really try to study up on it... reggie white did...
