Where did the Easter bunny come from?

Where does the easter bunny come into play on a religious holiday?

  • I thought Easter was to celebrate Christ Rising, so where does that tie in with the Easter Bunny.

  • Answer:

    As a companion to the Goddess, Eostre, the Spring Hare is quite appropriate on a religious holiday. The erroneous thinking is the thought that Easter has anything to do with the resurrection of the Christ. Oh, and to the preacher who offered rabbit recipes. In your (humorous) attempt to decry the Spring Hare, you are, in fact, keeping to the ancient ways. A rabbit sacrifice, subsequently consumed for the Feast of Eostre would have been entirely appropriate. Partaking of the symbol of Eostre, and all. Thanks for the recipes. I might just use that rabbit almondine in our Feast of Eostre, this year. Looks tasty.

Connection to false (pagan) worship of Goddesses of fertility. The early, corrupted Church sought to widen influence-why? $ & "friends", of course. Power begets power,etc, until it's quantity over quality of worshipeers that is desired. Result? Today we see watered-down "Christianity", still bending and jenuflecting to what is fasionable today. Bible standards are set aside for innumerable reasons.
