Belated Easter Joke -

In church, in Sunday school, on Easter Sunday.

Teacher says, “Who can tell me the real meaning of Easter?”

Little girl raises her hand. Teacher: “Yes Linda?” Linda says that Easter means a new dress, new shoes, a pretty hat, and a pastel colored coat. Teacher says, “no, that’s just about vanity and style, not about the REAL meaning of Easter.”

Little boy raises his hand. Teacher: “Yes Bobby?” Bobby says that Easter means lots of chocolates and a bunny. Teacher says, “no, that’s just about commercialism and gluttony, not about the REAL meaning of Easter.”

Third child raises hand and is called upon and explains: “Easter is when our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ died on the cross for our sins [and here the teacher starts to nod approvingly], and they took him down from the Cross [and she nods and says, “yes yes yes,”] and buried him in a cave [she smiles and nods some more], and three days later, they rolled the huge boulder away from the entrance to the cave [teacher is beaming with joy] and he came out, and if he saw his shadow it will be winter for six more weeks!”
