News is that a school in Alabama has banned the word "Easter" from their "bunny hunt," due to it's Christian significance.
The irony is that the word "Easter" is no more Christian than the bunny. Easter was apparently a pagan goddess of the dawn.
But then, why should pagan images like bunnies and Easter be promoted ahead of Christian ones? This is not religious equality, but brazenly favouring some religious positions over others.
