Hello and Happy Easter! And to all the non-believers, Happy Bunny Day! As I sit back and enjoy this beautiful weather in New York I slowly start to realize that New Yorkers are confused as hell. Half are dressed up headed to church (for many this is their first time going this year) while the other half is running around hiding Easter eggs and standing in long lines so their children can take pictures with a underpaid middle aged man dressed up in an enormous bunny outfit. So what's wrong with this picture?
Just like the tooth fairy, Santa Claus and any other character made up to take credit away from hard working parents, the Easter bunny serves no purpose in todays society. The bunny is basically the Spring time version of Santa Claus except he doesn't break and enter our homes. Instead he gives us eggs in a basket. AWESOME! (I hope you sense my sarcasm here) When I was child I didn't give a F*** about a bunny and his colorful eggs. As far as I was concerned he could take his bright hard eggs and choke on them. I get it, Easter egg hunts are fun family activities for the children. I GET IT! What I don't get is why is the church and the media so accepting of this tradition. The church already complains about taking Christ out of CHRISTmas, but yet they're sharing the festivities of Resurrection Sunday with a creature who licks itself as a form of bathing. I see how the two can be linked together!
