2008 REAL ART EASTER BASKET

I hate Easter. Because it celebrates quite a bad thing. But I've been all through that before.

Unless they've said the magic words known as "the prayer of salvation," or munched the right wafers, or wet their heads with tap water. Whatever your choice is. It's all crazy and bad.

Remember, when you celebrate Easter, you're essentially celebrating the Christian God's psychotic wrath, and a hatefulness so strong that it insists all human beings are worthy of torture for eternity.

We might as well be wishing each other a Happy Holocaust.
