The breeding of Christians.
Same thing that Santa Claus does for Jesus. Catholics are joyful people who like their religion, like Jews. It's a culture that starts in childhood and goes on through life. The Easter Bunny is a childhood story that makes the kids happy and makes them look forward to Easter, and happy, and allows families to have fun together on the biggest feast of the Catholic calendar. The Easter bunny is to Easter the same thing that a big glazed ham and the lilies and the pretty dresses and the singing at Church all are: part of the fun, part of the celebration. Non-Catholic Christians are usually dour, bitter, sour people, who think that anything fun is wrong. So of course they hate the Easter Bunny. Puritanical types all have Aspergers.
The Last Supper is the final meal that, in the Gospel accounts, Jesus shared with his Apostles in Jerusalem before his crucifixion. We know this, but we don’t know what was on the menu….do we? You think … Nah...say it ain't so!
Hard boiled bunny eggs?
Nah, dummy, the hard boiled eggs were egg appetizers. Hard boiled eggs make the perfect protein appetizer, when served with tarragon and cornichons dressing….very tasty. The bunny was the main course …
Really, Vicomte13? Non-Catholics are not dour, bitter, or sour people. We do not hate the Easter Bunny for we know it has nothing to do with Jesus Christ at all. As a kid, I always questioned why Easter Bunny had anything to do with Jesus and the idea of a rabbit laying colorful decorative eggs never made sense to me so I searched and I found why none of it made sense. Rabbits don't lay eggs; hens do. The Easter Bunny is a lie. I seek the truth and I am free from the lie and something I would never carry on such tradition to any offspring of mine because I am chiefly concerned of the eternal judgment I would face from the Lord when that time came. The Lord never ordained the celebration of the Easter Bunny as a Holy Day. As a matter of fact, the Jews were strictly forbidden from participating in a custom or tradition that the Lord never established as part of His covenant with them. And yes, I have Aspergers Syndrome but so what. I have no shame of this. I also have an above average IQ.
Yes, of course, "chiefly concerned", "I would never!" Grump, grump, grump. Try to enjoy yourself...it's Easter, Your house is spartan with no tree at Christmas, too, and I'm sure you keep the Saturday sabbath and that birthdays are pagan too, right? Grim.
Grim? What I see taking place in the Middle East is grim.
Yeah, that's grim. Islam is grim.
I always had Easter celebrations and Christmas trees. I also don't relate them to being Christian to my friends or my family. Both are fun little holidays with nothing to do with Christ. I taught my children that from the earliest times, and told them about the same time as they learned Santa was phony, that along with the tooth fairy they were all secular celebrations. There is nothing grim about Sabbath and Saturday worship. The remission of sin and the awesome sacrifice by our Savior is quite serious, but not grim at all. He conquered death, now we just follow his example.
Exercising rights is only radical to two people, Tyrants and Slaves. Which are YOU? Our ignorance has driven us into slavery and we do not recognize it.
Easter is the feast of the Resurrection - that's got everything to do with Christ.
According to most of organized Christianity? Yes it is. Not for all though.

Each person is, of course, free to believe and do as he thinks best.
Not sour or dour here. I've been known to dress up for such occasions when my children were younger. :) Perhaps some have issues with a large bunny rabbit entering the home late at night hiding fertility eggs. Lol.
I have issues with the Easter rabbit even being associated with Passover; a holy day ordained by the Lord. It is my understanding that Passover and The Ten Commandments never originated from Christianity as Passover and the Commandments were prescribed for the Jews. The idea of hiding fertility eggs and celebrating something the opposite of what the Lord had intended Passover to be, is something Jesus would never approve of. Just ask yourselves, "What would Jesus think about this?" If you have sought out this question carefully eventually you will find your answer.
That is not true. It is a Pagan Holiday that we celebrate.
That's ridiculous. Easter Sunday is all about the feast of the Resurrection. That's what WE'RE celebrating when we eat the Easter ham. Even the fact that it's ham, not lamb. This isn't Passover. We're not Jews under the Law - we're freed from death, and from ritual law, by Jesus' life, death and resurrection. That's why we eat HAM at Easter, specifically HAM - because it's not kosher, because we're not under the law. Lamb for the Temple right, but ham in celebration of our freedom FROM all of that - our freedom to eat what we please, our freedom from fear of death, BECAUSE OF the Resurrection. That's what WE'RE celebrating on Easter. If you know folks who are celebrating a pagan holiday, well, I feel sorry for them, because OUR holiday, this feast of the Resurrection, is much better, and more meaningful, than theirs.
The eggs had to do with Lent. Back in the day, no eggs during Lent. But you don't just throw away eggs when food was scarce. The hens still lay. Those eggs were boiled and pickled, to preserve them. Pickled eggs change color, of course, and people are playful and dyed them to make them more colorful. Then, come Easter, people can eat eggs again, and so out come all of those pickled, dyed eggs. That's where the Easter Egg came from. People with Aspergers always have to ascribe dark and evil things to practical and fun things. You can feel sorry for them, for being so ate up, but you must never give up your joy and go down and live in their darkness and sorrow with them, because what they have is a mental problem, not a real theological point.
