The Easter Bunny: Banned Easter Symbol
From the Year of Our Lord 1923 - (Until Jesus Tells Us Different)

What is the source for the article that you posted?

Though it is fashionable to disparage Christian oddities, research
Judaism and it's beliefs. The following are just a very small selection
of items easily found by doing searches on Google, and are not meant
disparagingly. Every religion has peculiar rites, or rites that non-
Believers may find peculiar.

Fear of the Easter Bunny and of Christmas Trees distance me as well from
these forms of Christianity. Yet concerns about "Harry Potter" are not as
offensive to me, though we own the movie series. Being Catholic and
viewing online movie reviews from the Catholic perspective, they too
mentioned that they can see that the Harry Potter series may be an issue
for some, but the Catholic Reviews went on to extol the virtues of the
Harry Potter movies, seeing the loyalties among friends, the morality in
terms of the adults at least trying to do what is right and more.

Christians are Christian's own worst enemies. They sometimes remind me of
Guliver's Travels, where one group of islanders hates the other, since
one side opens their hard boiled egg on the small end, the other group,
the large end.

So comes the fear of Easter Bunny.

Niddah refers to a woman who is ritually impure. She is considered
ritually impure while she is menstruating and for seven post-menstrual
days. According to the Family Purity Laws, as soon as possible after
nightfall of the seventh post-menstrual "clean" day, the woman must
immerse herself in a mikvah. After she has purified herself in the
mikvah, then she can resume sexual relations with her husband."

"A mikvah (also pronounced mikveh) is a ritual bath. The purpose of the
mikvah is solely ritual purification, not physical cleanliness. One must
thoroughly bathe before entering into and being purified by a mikvah.

This body of water must contain at least 480 liters of water that has not
been drawn or stored in a vessel (Lev: 11:36). Oceans, lakes, rivers,
ponds and springs are all natural catch basins of rainwater, and thus can
be used as mikvaot (plural for mikvah). Most mikvaot today, which exist
in cities, use 480 liters of undrawn water (channeled rainwater or melted
snow), and then add water pumped from a faucet to reach a depth
comfortable for immersion."

"Although the details of kashrut are extensive, the laws all derive from
a few fairly simple, straightforward rules:

Meat (the flesh of birds and mammals) cannot be eaten with dairy.
Fish, eggs, fruits, vegetables and grains can be eaten with either meat
or dairy. (According to some views, fish may not be eaten with meat).

Utensils that have come into contact with meat may not be used with
dairy, and vice versa. Utensils that have come into contact with non-
kosher food may not be used with kosher food. This applies only where the
contact occurred while the food was hot.

Grape products made by non-Jews may not be eaten."
