Happy easter and happy stuff like that

Happy Easter one and all! Not really. Easter, like Christmas seems to be lost in that glut of consumerism and the promotion of the non-Christian characters. The Easter bunny and other baby animals seem to take center stage. Rarely do I see crosses in yards like nativities at Christmas and the sight is saddening. Why are we so keen to celebrate the Savior's birth, if we do not give equal billing to the real reason he was born. Christ was not born for us to have one day a year to eat like pigs and give gifts to one another. He was born for us to celebrate Easter, when he died and rose again in order to save us from the sin that condems us, not so we could sing the praises of Peter Cottontail and gorge ourselves on Marshmallow Peeps. I know I have probably offended some of my non-Christian readers, but I make no appology for my opinion. As I said in my first blog entry, under the first Amendment I have the write to say and write what I please. Sorry folks, but this is my story and i'm sticking to it. Enjoy your ham and hard boiled eggs! See Ya!
