At my previous house, one of the neighboring families were

And Easter is the main event, at least it's supposed to
be.  One could  that they are both at the same level if
importance since Jesus couldn't have been crucified and
resurrected without first being born.
 

 
Passover NOT Easter/Ishtar!
 

 
That reminds me: you never did post the book, chapter and
verse from the Bible that you think explains the etymology of
the word Easter.
 
IIRC you narrowed it down to a passage about chopping down
pagan totem poles in either Joshua and/or Judges. When asked
to be more specific, you forgot about the Bible and quoted Doctor
Who dialogue instead. (Dialogue that didn’t mention the Bible,
Easter or even totem poles!)
 
So let’s try again. Please cite the book, chapter and
verse from
the Bible that you think explains the etymology of the word Easter.

Liar! That’s a page from a random guy’s blog, not the Bible. At
least this time you’ve managed to find a blog page that agrees
with you. Well done. But that still doesn’t make any of it
true. Why does this guy think he knows more about the origins
of English words than the people who literally wrote the dictionary?

And anyway, you claimed this was in the Bible, so you need post
a reference to the Bible. (Hint: the Bible isn’t the Old Testament, the
New Testament and the Random Guy’s Blog. I don’t think that’s
even part of the apocrypha.)
