Easter: Fantasy

Stay away from the basket, that's all I'm saying. We're teaching kids the wrong things, with the happy giant bunny distributing candy eggs, the Curious George exploring Easter, the go-run-off-and-hide-in-the-bushes-where-there's-candy. Not what you might call survival skills, those. The old Easter had the right idea. Get up at dawn and go out and freaking celebrate that you're alive. Tell the kids that sometimes the dead come back to life. Tell the kids that things come out of dark caves, sometimes. Terrible things. Beautiful things. And no, I'm not talking about vampires and zombies. Would you want a real angel involved in your life? An old testament angel, with a fiery sword and a terrifying visage and a plan for upending and maybe even just plain ending your life? The kind that puts you through hell as a test of faith?
