I have always liked purple. I do not know why, but even as an infant I liked purple. My mother said I had a purple blanket that I would not let anyone take away from me, but I would share the white or green one I had.

1. Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet. Actually, the rainbow is a whole continuum of colors from red to violet and even beyond the colors that the eye can see.\n2. you can see a rainbow anywhere there is water around and you have the sun to your back.\n3.Sir Isaac Newton in his early physics experiments decided the colors of the rainbow

This may be of little or no help but all I could think of after reading this question was the scene in "Mask" (the 80's flick with Cher). The character with an odd face is dating a blind girl and he gets a bunch of stones.  He hands her a cold one, and says "this is blue" then hands her a hot one and says "this is red." For other colors like green and yellow, I would use sent. Like a glade plug in that smelled like spring.\n\nAll color truly does is describe something to our eyes.  Since they cannot see, you must find a way to describe it to one of there other senses.  Maybe white is a feather; maybe purple is a flower...

I agree and I like the question. In general the portraits of Jesus came from European peoples of the Middle Age and Renaissance and they are basically white. I also thing that most of the images have great similarities with the artist that paint them.

Why is the sea blue some places and green other places?\n\nColor's a tricky thing to understand. Every single color you see is an ingredient in pure white light. (Sunlight is a good example of white light.) A rainbow lets you see the main ingredients in white light -- red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet. Colors such as light blue, pale green or fuchsia are there, too.\n\nWhat colors you see depends on which colors of white light are absorbed by an object, and which colors bounce back to your eyes. Say you are looking at a red book. The chemical and physical make-up of the book lets it absorb all the colors except red. The red bounces off the book and back to your eye.\n\nAnd the sea? Well, scientists don't agree on this one. Some say light from the blue sky reflects off the water to you eye, and that color of water itself is greenish-blue. Others say water is blue, and that oceans look green along the coasts because underwater plants reflect more green.\n\nEither way, the next time you go for a dip in the sea, look closely. There's more to water's color than meets the eye!

Thank you for taking the time to remove your repeated postings. \nFor the person above me why are you upset? you got 2 points for your answer?\n\nThe History of Mardi Gras\n\nMardi Gras came to New Orleans through its French heritage in 1699. Early explorers celebrated this French Holiday on the banks of the Mississippi River. Throughout the years, Orleanians have added to the celebration by establishing krewes (organizations) which host parades and balls. Carnival quickly became an exciting holiday for both children and adults.\n\nMardi Gras means "Fat Tuesday" and of course is celebrated on that day of the week. The date can fall between February 3 and March 9 depending on the Lunar calendar, used by the Catholic Church to determine the date of Easter. Mardi Gras is always 47 days before Easter Sunday.\n\nThe official colors for Mardi Gras are purple, green, and gold. These colors were chosen in 1872 by the King of Carnival, Rex. He chose these colors to stand for the following:\n\n    * Purple represents justice\n    * green stands for faith\n    * gold stands for power\n\nThe Mardi Gras season begins on January 6 and continues until Fat Tuesday, the day before Ash Wednesday. On the Christian calendar, the twelfth day after Christmas is known as "Epiphany", "Twelfth Night", or "Kings Day." It is the day the gift-bearing Magi visited the baby Jesus, and is celebrated with its own unique rituals.

Unless you want to go w/a St. Patties Day theme, you would probably do best w/ a dusty rose or some other color.  W/ the sage green in might be cool to go w/ a bold color, like royal blue or purple.  Congrats!

Easter has nothing to do with Jesus christ. It was made up by false religions. It's a lie.\n\n\nEaster was “originally the spring festival in honor of the Teutonic goddess of light and spring known in Anglo-Saxon as Eastre.” (The Westminster Dictionary of the Bible) “There is no indication of the observance of the Easter festival in the New Testament.”

Actually, there is a mixture in your mind. Easter, the Resurrection story as celebrated by the Christians is a Christian celebration. However, when the Holy Roman Empire was making it's way across Europe there were several pagan holiday traditions that couldn't be stamped out, no matter how they tried. Therefore, the Catholics took a page out of the Romans' book and just adopted them into their own celebrations and glossed them over as Catholic rituals. \n\nI could go on forever with examples of these, but I'll limit myself to the Easter rituals. Easter was named after a Norse goddess named Ostara, a goddess of fertility. She had certain symbols sacred to her, the hare and the egg. During the Spring Equinox, the adult women would decorate and hide eggs for the men to find. Whomever found the woman's egg, was that woman's partner for the feasting and activities after (think fertility ritual). For this day, marriages were set aside so that the ritual could be enjoyed by all. \n\nSince the Catholics couldn't get rid of this festival entirely, they kept the Easter Bunny and the Egg Coloring and got rid of the fun stuff like the feasting, drinking and fertility ritual. \n\nAnd that's the story of the origin of the Easter Bunny and the colored eggs folks.
