I might live in a pagan dominated world (days of the week, months of the year, etc.), but I do NOT have to be involved with the roman church and her false doctrines and her holidays.

My point exactly...

I can live in a pagan dominated world and yet maintain biblically based worship.

The early Church did just that!

But many do...

And by that same token I don't see why those same people would not tell their kids the same thing about the easter bunny.

Children hear about three things when they're young: Santa Claus, the Easter bunny and Jesus Christ. They eventually find out that Santa Claus and the Easter bunny are not real. What do you think they believe about Jesus?

We have always told our kids Santa is a Christmas clown, and the Easter Bunny is like Barney - imaginary.

Now the Tooth Fairy is a different issue altogether.

Talk about weak arguements and putting words in a persons mouth!

You said that, I didn't.

To children one is often as real as the other. What a shaky ground to build ones faith in God on.
