Chocolate Jesus
Believe me, I know my title is the same as a Tom Waits song…who would know that better than me? Just part of what I remember as I look back at Easter as a child and how weird all of it seemed to me.
First of all the first time you’re told about the reason for the holiday. There’s this guy Jesus and he’s the son of god. Then because he is the son of god, a group of people get pissed at him and kill him by nailing him to a cross…then he comes back from the dead.
“Whoa, wait a minute…he comes back from the dead? He’s a zombie? A Vampire?”
“No, he’s still just Jesus.”
“But, he came back from being dead? Are you sure this isn’t why we celebrate Halloween?”
