Alyss, thank for being brave enough to ask.  You deserve a straight answer.  No such thing as a rabbit/hare/jackrabbit with antlers.\n\nSuch a critter is called a "jackalope" and is fabricated by imaginative taxidermists to confound the gullible.  It is a joke.  Some look quite real, though.  The idea comes from the fact that male rabbits are called...  Bucks!\n\nH

Why so many questions about the colour of Jesus' skin?\nGod made all races of people and salvation is available to everyone.  I don't care if Jesus was black, brown or white.  What is the difference?  He is still God!

First off, how in the world are you going to find out if Christianity is fake?? Why do "atheists" always choose Christianity to knock anyway? If Christianity isn't real, then why are you asking about it? Hmmm, think. So do athiests teach there children the 10 commandments or do they just let them, steal, kill, lie, covet etc...what do atheists teach their kids??

Eggs are a symbol of fertility as is the bunny.  Spring, a time of rebirth for the Christian's and a time of birth for the rest of us.

They kind of look like evil easter bunnies, don't they?

Not a thing. Before Christians appropriated it, Easter was a fertility festival, and it is clear how bunnies and eggs would factor into that. The paganism of the holiday never really went away, even after Christians began calling it Easter.

If you are referring to the Easter Bunny,  the answer is, Easter isn't all about Christ!  Only to Christians is Easter all about Jesus's resurrection.  Here is an article.\n\nQuite a few pagan cultures hold celebrations in the spring. It's the time of year when plants return to life after being dormant all winter and when animals mate and procreate. These festivities celebrate the renewal of life and promote the fertility of crops, animals, and even people, which was important in these agrarian communities. The Saxons believed in a maiden goddess of fertility named Eastre or Eostre (Oestre in Latin) and honored her with a spring festival. Hares and rabbits were considered sacred to Eastre because they are notoriously fertile animals. \n\nIn the second century A.D., Christian missionaries tried to convert northern European tribes. To help make Christianity attractive, the missionaries turned pagan festivals into Christian holidays. The pagan Eastre festival occurred around the same time as the Christian celebration marking Christ's resurrection so the two celebrations blended into one, rabbit and all. \n\nOver time, Eastre became Easter, and the symbolism changed as well. Instead of the Easter rabbit symbolizing fertility, the rabbit may symbolize an innocent, vulnerable creature that can be sacrificed, similar to the lamb. To Christians, these innocents are tokens of Christ and the sacrifice he made. \n\nThe Easter bunny we know today was influenced by German traditions dating back to the 1500s. German children believed that the Oschter Haws (a magical rabbit) would leave them a nest of colored eggs at Eastertime if they were good. Pennsylvania Dutch settlers brought this tradition to America in the 1700s. \n\nOn a related note, eggs have long been a symbol of rebirth and thus associated with spring celebrations. In the 600s, Pope Gregory the Great forbade the eating of eggs during Lent (the 40 days proceeding Easter), and this helped make eggs a special treat at Easter. Many European cultures also have old customs of decorating eggs and giving them as gifts.

artistic license.  What Jesus actually looked like is unknown.  He was definately of Middle Eastern decent.  He most likely was unshaven.  He probably had shorter hair (as was the common jewish style at the time) unlike the long haired interpretations.

Easter was a pagen holiday, for fertility. I know this is cliche, but have you ever heard the term "Multipling like rabbits"? Ergo - Bunnies. I am not entirely certain that is why the bunny is there, but I am certain easter was a fertility holiday.

I've know about the pagan link between the Easter Bunny and fertility and such for a while.  Here's some other websites I've found:\nhttp://www.easterbunnys.net/easterbunnyhistory.htm\nhttp://wilstar.com/holidays/easter.htm\nhttp://www.chiff.com/a/easter-bunny.htm\n\nPretty much, it seems we get the word Easter from the German holiday that used to take place at about the same time of year.  Easter falls close to Passover - the story of Jesus on the cross takes place in the new testament immediately following the last supper, which was a Passover feast.\n\nBasically, the early Christians borrowed symbols from pagan religions for all of their holidays.  Many Christmas traditions stem from these rituals as well.
