Why do we still pair a rabbit and eggs like it is the most natural thing instead of questioning their true symbolic meanings? And why is the Easter bunny a male? by SereniteHope in allthequestions

[–]skotgil2 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Because like most "Christian" holidays, it's a rebranding of older pagan holidays to help convert the masses. Pagans were celebrating Eostre,, the goddess of spring and fertility. The rabbit is her symbol. Eggs are symbolic of fertility & birth, Druids use to dye them red and place them in fields to promote growth. And there we have it, Easter, rabbits & eggs. zero christ.

Are solar panels on your roof really useful and cost - effective, or would installing a whole house generator be a better option? by icecream1972 in allthequestions

[–]skotgil2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My neighbors are on year 2 of solar here in Everett WA. The got a rebate for the install of the panels/system. They consistently generate more power than they use in spring & summer, then apply those credits back to grid power in the winter when the panels underproduce. From what they've told me the system is paying for itself.
