Those Waskilwy Howidays

At a local mall in the Denver Metro Area, the "Easter Bunny" is being replaced. By the "Spring Bunny".

Why? Because the reference to "Easter" is deemed offensive to non-Christians.

Oooooookay...

Granted, the "Easter Bunny" has nothing to do with Christianity: as I heard it pointed out, it wasn't Harvey getting nailed to a cross over 2,000 years ago. In fact, the Easter egg thing is actually an adaptation from a pagan procreative ritual, which has nothing to do with omelettes, so I 'spect it wasn't French pagans, but I digress.

Now, I could well buy that this is simply nothing more than the liberal/progressive politically correct sect of atheists and other "it's okay to offend Christians" groups, taking and chipping away at the traditions of this largely Christian nation.

But that's too easy. So I took one of those "leaps of logic" I'm reputed for, and considered another possibility. One that might just make recasting the Easter Bunny more defensible and expedient.

Bullsh**, but here's the attempt hyar.
