Seems to me the real question is, why does anyone who's not Pagan celebrate a Pagan holiday? Bunnies and eggs are far more prevalent in the secular world than the Christian one.
I don't know anybody celebrating a Pagan holiday. Maybe you do, but I can't ever remember hearing about any Pagan celebrations.
If Jesus was the Passover, and Lamb of God for the sin of the world. Why have we reduced what the Blood of Jesus have accomplished down to bunny and eggs. Bunnies are a leftover from the pagan festival of Eostre, a great northern goddess whose symbol was a rabbit or hare. No wonder it is so many powerless churches in America, that have become entertainment and theater centers.
Because to get offended by bunnies and eggs you have reduced it to that which you disapprove of.
What difference does it make if bunnies and eggs once referred to this goddess or that goddess or a pre-Christian fertility rite? Who cares?
If Jesus was here he'd be eating chocolate bunnies and coloring eggs and having a good time doing it and wondering why the people with the long sour faces complaining about them call themselves his followers.

So consider it a cultural holiday and not a religious one, forget it and get a life for pities sake
