First shots fired in the War on Easter
Don't try and act like you didn't know it was coming...
The defeatists! proudly join the War on Easter along with fellow comrades The Disgruntled Chemist, Pandagon, Echidne of the Snakes and PZ Meyers.
We are defeatists, so we don't expect to win the war. But we promise to go down swinging.

I never got the secular stuff about Easter. Rabbits are symbols of what? Long eared rodents? With eggs? What the hell is that all about? The only way a Rabbit would get an egg is by stealing the damn thing. I know that the good thief, St Dismas (not that his name appears anyplace anywhere, but we named him anyway) was a thief but Jesus Christ! Err, something ....
Mithra had a pretty good resurrection myth; I'm pretty sure that Krishna had one; certain of the Norse gods as I recall had them too. And, of course, Arthur waits in a mountain someplace for when England needs him again...or is that the Easter Hare?
You know what I miss about Easter? Old women in weird hats. I could go hang around black Holiness churches, but that would be patronizing. I want to see Laura Bush in an Easter Decorated Sombrero; or Hillary Clinton in one of those Bolivian Indian hats, with a bunch of pins on it for breast cancer, aids, bring the troops home and so on and so on...

This is good news. Now I have something to do with all these bullets left over from the War on Christmas.

Actually, rabbits do lay rather interesting eggs. I have a picture. Or perhaps it is only the Rabbit of Caerbannog.
