There is nothing Christian left about Christmas and Easter. It's annual gift-giving day and chocolate day.

Bunnies laying chocolate eggs =/= Jesus

One of my most favorite conversations ever was about the unChristian nature of Christmas and Easter.

I find it hard to believe there ever WAS anything Christian about Easter...

No, I haven't. Don't tell me--they twist it around so that the symbols of fertility and rebirth are symbols of Jesus's resurrection, don't they?

Heh. Except for when they sponsor Easter Egg hunts for the kiddos, there isn't any mention of bunnies and such. They mainly just tell the story of his resurrection, sing a bunch of songs, and do similar churchy activities.

Churchy activities! xd Once, at church (I was like... nine), we were having a... I don't think it was any holiday, but they were having like a big ol' neighborhood sale where people sold whatever they wanted to. And these guys were selling the services of cream pies (just whipped cream on a plate) and also, for an extra fee, to go and hit the person you wanted them to with the cream. Ha! My step sister and I spent most of our allowance on cream plates. xd

Don't ask what that had to do with anything at all... it was just a random memory that the term "churchy activities" dredged up. eek

I think they are just celebrating for the point of celebrating. The best reason to celebrate.

w00t sauce to that! *dancedance*  

[Zwiebelsaft!]

yeah- we could, but we'd have to have it during the holiday seasons

current holidays ok:

~Thanksgiving
~new years eve/day
~mother's day
~father's day

Holidays that need to be changed and what to change them to:
~Christmas -> Winter Moonlight Holiday
~Easter -> Luxury Spring Day

~all i can think of so far~
