Easter is a wonderful time of year. It is marked by an anthropomorphized rabbit that brings chocolate and pastel coloured eggs to all of the little Christian boys and girls of the world. Easter also has something vaguely to do with Jesus.

Easter is basically the ultimate BDSM holiday for Christians. They get to watch (or imagine) their God getting whipped almost to death. Then He has to drag the cross upon which He will be tied and left to die upon up a hill, where it will be planted in the ground, and He gets tied up on it. Then He suffers for Your (oops, sorry "you" ain't important enough to be capitalized!) sins for many steadfast hours. In the end he chickens out (it would take much longer for a human to die under such circumstances -- such was the nature of Roman crucifixion) and commends his spirit back to his Dad. A couple of days later (three, supposedly -- the whole Good Friday thing is badly interpreted) he lumbers around, and shows a few (hundred?) friends his nail wounds.

After thousands of years, people still are awed by "stigmata" (which, by the way, is an awesome song).

[edit] Two Easters for the price of One!

Eastern Orthodox Christians have their Easter after the Roman Catholics and Protestants, so they can buy their chocolate rabbits and marshmallow "Peeps" on sale.
