Camo, NASCAR, Fritos and Resurrection Eggs

I love going to WalMart. It's the kind of store where you can buy the necessities of life and all of Ron Popeil's Ronco products. They also have the largest selection of NASCAR crap ever assembled in one location. There's NASCAR underwear, clothes, car mats, and yes, chocolate Easter cars. I went to WalMart to find some plastic eggs for my daughter's preschool Easter party. There were the normal eggs, glittery eggs, and Camo eggs. Yes, it's true. They had green camouflaged eggs. I just had to buy them so I can look at them in amazement in the comfort of my own home. Well, that and the WalMart workers were starting to look at me funny as I was laughing out loud in the isle. Then I saw them.....RESURRECTION EGGS(say with loud booming God-like voice).

That's right people! You and your kids can share the beauty of the bloody crucifixion, together. In each lovely pastel colored egg is a miniature replica of an item from the crucifixion. One egg may have a miniature spear, the other may have a miniature cross, and still another has rope used to tie Jesus to the cross. Just think, parents, your kids can pretend to whip Jesus just like in real life, if you find the lucky egg with the whip. Oh yeah....each egg has a life affirming thought in it. Probably something like, "Gays should all die".

You know, I'm not a devoted Christian but even I'm offended. It seems the Crucifixion has went commercial. Who thinks that opening eggs with items depicting a murder is fun? How cheap have we become anyway?
