FAMILY VALUES EXPLAINED: An Easter production for children by the
Glassport (Penn.) Assembly of God church brought a big crowd. But "It
was absolutely horrendous," said Melissa Salzmann, who left with her
child when she realized what the show was about. Performers told the
kids "there is no Easter Bunny" and smashed eggs the kids thought
they'd be looking for in an Easter egg hunt after the show. Then they
tortured a woman in an Easter Bunny suit. Salzmann said her 4-year-old
son "was crying and asking me why the bunny was being whipped." The
church's youth minister, who played the part of the Bunny, explained
"The program was for all ages, not just the kids. We wanted to convey
that Easter is not just about the Easter Bunny." (McKeesport Daily
News, AP) ...If there's no Easter Bunny, then what were they torturing?
:angry: Thats like saying to a little kid theres no santa or tooth fairy . The guy deserves to be sacked as a minister .
