yes it is the celebration of the victory of christ over death. it is the day when christ rose from the dead and conquered death for us. It is because of these that we can now have eternal life through accepting jesus christ as our lord and savior.
If God is with you, who can be against you?

In the Christian faith, Easter has come to mean the celebration of the resurrection of Christ three days after His crucifixion. It is the oldest Christian holiday and the most important day of the church year because of the significance of the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus Christ, the events upon which Christianity is based. Easter Sunday is preceded by the season of Lent, a 40-day period of fasting and repentance culminating in Holy Week and followed by a 50-day Easter season that stretches from Easter to Pentecost.

It is a continuation of a fertility rite that began in the neolithic period. The death of the seed means the growth of the plant. The death of the god meant the Nile would flood the valley and bring fertility.

No. Easter was, and has always been a pagan ritualistic celebration.
