When I was a nice little Jewish girl-not to be confused with the evil-ex-Jew that I am now(I converted to Christianity for those who don’t know)-Santa and the E.B. visited EVERY year-and the E.B. usually was very generous on the goodies.
My parents said that we celebrated"Santa" and the “Easter Bunny"-not Christmas or Easter.
Besides after a long Chicago winter my mother though that anything celebrating spring couldn’t be that bad
I sang Christmas songs at school and was even part of a CATHOLIC childrens choir at one point.
I asked my mother one if-in light of my “apostacy” she wished she had done htings differently.
She responded that no, she didn’t, because it wouldn’t have made a difference.
She understood that my conversion had nothing to do with bunnies or santa’s.
My point:
If your’re offended by the Easter Bunny or Santa or “Merry Christmas” or “Happy Easter"-then maybe you should re-examine your OWN beliefs.: because if you were secure in them it wouldn’t bother you.
If you’re going to lose faith because of a BUNNY-you’re going to lose it no matter what.
