Thoughts on Easter or Springtime if you want to be all PC

Happy Easter or Spring time if you want to be"accepting" of every one's views. I am not sure at this point in my life what to believe but I was in Sunday School as a kid so I know what Bible Easter is all about. Frankly, I find it very ironic how with most christian holidays all the "traditions" come from pagan tribes and their crazy rituals. Egg laying bunny rabbits don't have a whole lot to do with some one ascending the gap between mortal and immortal / coming back to life. It all probably comes from some crazy tribal fertility voodoo spell from ancient Russia. I mean we have all heard the thing about Santa Clause and how he originated as a public-urinating magic mushroom eating shaman. If you have not heard, the idea of Santa probably originated from some tribal group that had the tradition of their shaman eating a bunch of magic mushrooms and then climbing through every one's chimneys and peeing in cups left out for him. Then everyone would drink the pee and get a residual high from them. I am just guessing that the flying reindeer came shortly there after. The Christmas tree was German, I do believe, and was originally used to ward away the evil darkness spirits.


Anyways back to the Holiday at hand. Easter coincides with the start of springtime, (in most places...HOPE IT DUMPS SNOW IN MONTANA) it was like 85 and humid today. Spring time means new life for most plants and animals. So obviously the egg is a great symbol. The expression hump like rabbits is all I really need to mention and combine the two and you get the Easter bunny. The irony comes into play when you think that in a great many cases Old Time Christians probably did the best to convert all the so called "tribal bands" and eliminate their pagan rituals. Now all the major Christian Holidays are based mostly on these rituals. Pagans- 1 Christians - 0.


I talked about religion, symbolism and irony. Feels like a freaking essay. Here is a song about one side of the argument. If your easily offended I would not press play.
