The Easter Bunny Needs to Die
What does the Easter Bunny have to do with the true meaning of Easter? I bet if you asked the average American, they couldn't even tell you what the true meaning of Easter is. I tried to go to Target today and it was closed- for Easter! Do you think all of those Target employees were at home today thanking their lucky stars that Jesus died on a cross for their sins and then resurrected himself three days later? Doubtful. But I can almost guarantee they were all at home stuffing there faces with food. Ok, so I stuffed my face too, but my point is, hasn't Easter really lost it's meaning? Do we really need to celebrate it as a National holiday? I guess if celebrating Easter gave me an extra day off of work a year maybe I wouldn't be so bitter. All I know is I wanted to run into Target and buy a few damn things today, and I couldn't because people were at home celebrating something that most of them don't understand. I really don't remember reading about the Easter Bunny in the Bible, and I don't recall ever hearing about him being at the crucifixion of Christ. HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE!!!!!

Easter - the closest approximation the Christians could come up with to the Pagan Symbol of fertility (the rabbit, begining of spring, rebirth, etc.) in order to convert more Pagans to Christianity. It's right around the same time ole Jebus did his tree impression for the Romans, and his band of mindless fanatical storytellers made up the story of him coming back to life. This must work out nicely when out recruiting, ya know. Leave the bunny alone its the fucking religous right that needs to die.
thanks for your input Chandler, please come back soon! Sterling!
