Do you even know what easter means?

Nope, that's not a Christian word...

Yes. Comes from Eostre, the pagan fertility goddess.

Well Google says

Ostara, or Eostre or Eastre, is the Germanic Goddess of spring and dawn. She is only mentioned once in scholarly writings of the period - Bede the monk states that during Eostremonath (the old Anglo-Saxon names for April), the pagan Anglo-Saxons help festivals in her honor.
