This also always seemed odd to me that people celebrate his birth so much more than the miracle of his re-birth. There would not be a Christmas if not for the Easter, correct? So, why is the emphasis not placed on celebrating, worshiping, making atonement on Easter? I never understood that. I'm glad to see that I'm now not the ONLY person. THANK YOU, Basil!!!
