You've already been told why red dyed eggs are given out on Pascha in the Orthodox Church. It doesn't matter what kind of crazy you've culled from somewhere in your attempt to try to tell me that my own church doesn't know what it believes on this topic- but I think the Orthodox Church pretty much knows what it believes and promotes better than you. It's what is taught in our Church that counts- and nothing is matching up with the unsubstantiated claims you're spewing.
Also, regarding the Easter bunny thing. Who does this? Name a group. I've never heard tell of such anywhere. I've yet to see Easter bunny anything in an Orthodox Church, so there's one down. We don't even call it Easter anyway. It's Pascha to us- even in English speaking countries.
In Christianity- eggs on Pascha have long represented the resurrection of Christ. You can attempt to spin it any way you like, but after a point it begins to make one wonder why you're trying so hard to promote pagan beliefs and explanations (that every Christian I've ever heard of rejects) over Christian ones.
No, what Christianity does is slaps the name Jesus on top of everything no matter whats it origins and then says, these are the origins of X,Y,Z from now now, just ignore everything before we came along and defined it.
As for Pascha, didnt Jesus say keep the PASSOVER, not pascha. Was there Passover Eggs or Unleavened Eggs. Have you ever stopped to think where did Pascha get red eggs from But im not even against Pascha because I think it is great to honor the resurrection, what I dont get is why cant people let go of the eggs as it doesnt have crap to do with Christ.
