I advise you to just go ahead and eat those eggs. Did you know that eating eggs at Easter (originally Eostre, the name of the Spring Goddess) is a way of celebrating the start of spring, and the bloom of life on earth? The tradition originated with us pagans, and the egg is considered a symbol of the yearly rebirth of Gaia, the Earth Goddess.
Have you ever thought of becoming a wiccan?
Our religion is much less repressive than Christianity, because we don't listen to some Holy Book, but to the Voices of the Wind, which are always open to free interpretation. A favorite quote of mine is one a Native American woman once told the famous herbalist Carol McGrath:
Quote:
If you take [a copy of] the Christian Bible and put it out in the wind and the rain, soon the paper on which the words are printed will disintegrate and the words will be gone. Our bible IS the wind and the rain.
