AJ,

A common misunderstanding of the holiday Easter.

The Roman Catholic church, when convincing the pagan Romans to convert to Christianity, injected the pagan rituals of the celebration of Ishtar??(don't remember the exact name of the Spring goddess), where you get the Easter bunny, eggs, etc...

The holiday of Easter is about the death and resurrection of Christ, probably the greatest Christian holiday of all. Don't get confused about the real meaning of Easter with the pagan rituals added to the holiday by the Roman Catholic church. It's a common mistake, though!

God Bless,
IGIT
