Today is Easter. I am still educating myself on the hisotry of the Bible and all the charactors associated with it. I was never raised in a church like the majoriety of "southern" children are. I was taught right and wrong and had brief encounters with teachings from the Bible, but that was the extent of my knowledge. My father was in the military up until I was 15 so I have always been surrounded bydifferent ethnicitys and religions. All of which I hold a deep respect for. I am, I freely admit, struggleing through this learning experience. I am quite aware that I believe in God and Jesus, but why. Is it because I have over the years been told that the Christian beliefs are what they are and that is that. Or is it possibly because they are fact. We are told as children that Santa comes into our homes during the night and showers us with a mulitiude of gifts. We grow up believing that on this very day a giant rabbit slipps in through the night and lines our tables with candy and presents.
