Don't worry, I don't really like chocolate all that much.

Happy Easter, everyone.

Also, I hate Easter Eggs. Easter is not about chocolate or small chickens with orange beaks and googly-eyes.

Re: Easter Greetings 2007

devante, yes, however, you can always if you feel like it associate the egg with new life, and the chocolate part as part of the celebration.

Re: Easter Greetings 2007

Yes, there's that part as well, but I also think that they should teach young members of society what Easter is about. I mean, we don't want people growing up and saying that Easter is about chocolate eggs, now, do we? big_smile

Re: Easter Greetings 2007

I'm actually a Christian, so I know what Easter is about. When I lived back in England I went to a Christian school, so I went to church services on Easter Sunday. I think they ended up making easter eggs as a symbol of rebirth, new life. The chocolate is about the celebration of new life. But I just don't know why they brought a chicken and bunny into the picture...

Something to hatch from the egg, I guess. It may be connected to the 'What came first; Chicken or Egg?' question, but I have no idea how bunnies came about.

My guess is the Easter Bunny was invented by someone thinking a bunny as the 'Messanger Of God' by hopping all over the world and giving new life to all of God's creation in the form of chocolate easter eggs.
