I don't beleve it. Or do I?
I went insearch of other meanings of Easter to satisfy those people here - not inclined toward the religous stuff.
In an earler post I mentioned the phrase Easter in Cyberspace. Just now I came acrost this site http://www.easterincyberspace.com I swear - people I didn't know it was there untill just now. It looks like a pretty good site with some interesting info.
On some other pages that I found I found out that the Easter bunny as we know it originated in Germany in the 1500's. Something about the fertality of rabits and the hardboild eggs meaning rebirth?
The word Easter comes from the name of a pagan goddess - Eostre or Oestre. Something about a female mammal in heat?

Mucho Grande Hugs!
