xsfiance was wondering where the Easter Bunny and eggs thing came from and how it became associated with Easter, none of us knew.

So nobody knew about the fertility goddess Ishtar (pronounced Easter) and the pagan festival that happened about the same time as Passover (so therefore also about the same time as the Crucifixion and Resurrection) and the bunnies and eggs relation to the fertility goddess?
