Easter Explained

Monday, March 24, 2008

I got so confused by the early Easter this year and got so wrapped up in the commercialism of the holiday that I nearly forgot to remember the true meaning of the day. Yes, Easter is a converted Pagan sun ritual. No, there's not really a giant rabbit that hides eggs all over your yard only to be found rotting under a tomato plant, weeks later by your dog.

But the true meaning of Easter is that it's the day each year when Jesus rolls away the stone at the entrance to his tomb and pulls the Shroud of Turin away from his eyes. And if he sees his shadow? Six more weeks of Lent.

This is one of the funniest things I've seen in a long time! Thanks for the laugh. I shared it with a few folks who likewise got a laugh.

    I've said it before. I'll say it again. I wish this was my dog.

    Or is it wish it were? I always get mixed up on the subjunctive case.
