The Easter Bunny and other secular/pagan Easter practices

Submitted by Loutzenhiser on Mon, 2008-09-15 14:53.
Just who is this Easter Bunny? Where did he come from? How did he get into Christ's resurrection? Should Christian's participate? What other secular/pagan Easter practices are in Christ's Resurrection? For discussions on the Resurrection of Christ then please use the Passover thread.

Easter Bunny
The origin of the Easter Bunny and Easter is
pagan. I don't believe in the fertility rites
that are assoicated with it. No, I don't
believe Christians should celebrate the pagan
aspect of it. I also believe that Mainstream
Churches shouldn't have Easter Egg hunts.
The only good thing that comes from that day
is all the chocolate bunnies that I get to eat.
Ears first then the bunny heads. Yummy!!!
God Bless and Peace,
