RE: Celebrate the horrors of the crucifixion with the children, buy resurrection eggs!

What really bothers me about resurrection eggs is the concrete examples they give to the story of Jesus's death and crucifixion. They actually include a string to bring home the point that he was whipped and a nail to remind kids it was nailed through the hand/wrist of a living human being. I've seen people use of these eggs when they teach children. It's kind of disturbing. I did question these people as to whether it was a good idea to use of these eggs, but as usual I was ignored.
I have studied the Bible and the theology behind Christianity for many years. I have been to many churches. I have walked the depth and the breadth of the religion and, as a result of this, I have a lot of bullshit to scrape off the bottom of my shoes. ~Ziploc Surprise
