What I've heard, but have no backing for, is that Easter coopted pagan holidays that fell in the spring and were related to fertility. Eggs and rabbits were related to those.

I suppose it's time for one of Aardvarks totally true easter facts that are definitely not made up... probably.

It's a well know fact that Christians celebrate Easter as the day of the resurrection of Jesus. What isn't as well know is that Jesus had a pet bunny with him in the tomb. The bunny wasn't dead, so when god cast his AoE resurrection spell, the bunny got splashed with some extra miracle.

While Jesus got to ascend to heaven, the bunny got left behind. Unfortunately for the bunny, it started laying chocolate eggs and became immortal.

In Spain right now and there are zero easter eggs or bunnies. Appears it was a uniquely American marketable bastardization of a religious holiday.

bunnies and eggs have nothing to do with Jesus Christ and Christ consciousness. they were inserted as a cult prop in order to represent fertility and procreation, not "rebirth and awakening." Easter holiday (a play on the name Ishtar, an ancient pagan goddess, and other similarly named gods/goddesses) is peppered with all kinds of occult symbology, in order to confuse the minds of normies, and Christians too.

we had 2 family gatherings on that day: one had a modest lunch, trivia, and no alcohol. the other one, that i did not get to attend, had a drinking bar. i think in time, Easter will be just like St Patricks Day and Christmas, with drinking, debauchery, and all kinds of madness, to help people forget about the original sacred meanings of these holidays.

yesterday i thought that pictures like this imprint in the mind as "a bunny with big balls"

here is a pretty good introductory presentation by a pretty girl:

In spring a lot of bunnies start showing up, and hens start laying eggs, so people associated the two, and made up the story that the bunnies brought the eggs and hide them around the place.

The Easter bunny is a symbol of Easter due to its association with spring, fertility, and new life, as well as the pagan festival of Eostre, which honored a goddess of fertility and spring. Rabbits are often seen as symbols of fertility because of their high reproduction rates. The tradition of the Easter bunny bringing eggs and treats to children is rooted in German folklore and has spread across the United States. Here's a more detailed explanation: Spring and Fertility: Rabbits, especially hares, have been associated with spring and fertility in various cultures due to their prolific breeding habits. Pagan Roots: The festival of Eostre, a pagan spring festival, was associated with a goddess of fertility and spring, and the rabbit was her symbol. German Folklore: The tradition of the Easter bunny was brought to America by German immigrants who had stories of an egg-laying hare, known as "Osterhase" or "Oschter Haws". Egg Laying: The hare was believed to lay colorful eggs, which were then hidden for children to find, symbolizing new life and rebirth. Modern Easter Bunny: Over time, the tradition evolved, with the hare being replaced by the more common bunny rabbit, and the nest of eggs becoming a basket filled with eggs, candy, and other treats.

Growing up in my household, we always celebrated Easter in the pagan sense. I associate both bunnies and eggs with celebrating spring and fertility.

And yeah, chocolate eggs are just cadburys and your local dentists run at your wallet. Better to stack sats and enjoy the longer weekend in good health.

There is no any relation its just our generation design and arts. Then Eggs with Easter how?
