    Perhaps you should study into it.
    You might be surprised what the Babylonians did. Eggs were often considered "sacred" objects and the rabbit (and certain other critters) were revered for their fertility. Its no accident that even the name Easter is derived from Astarte, Ishtar and subsequently Oester and the other "equivalents".

    Anyway you slice it bunnys, eggs, and candy have nothing to do with Christ, and neither does Easter/Astarte/Ishtar/Oester.
