Muslim moms and dads in Dearborn, Mich. are upset
after students received flyers promoting an Easter Egg hunt at a local
Presbyterian church.
The parents say the egg hunt “violates the U.S.
Constitution”.
The Muslims told the Detroit Free-Press that they were
concerned about the religious implications of Cherry Hill Presbyterian Church’s
“Eggstravaganza!”
They were also “troubled” by images of a bunny rabbit.
“It really bothered my two kids,” parent Majed Moughni, told
the newspaper. “My son was like, ‘Dad, I really don’t feel comfortable getting
these flyers, telling me to go to church. I thought churches are not supposed
to mix with schools.’ ”
The school district did not comment and the pastor of the
church said there’s nothing remotely religious about the event.
“Part of our ministry in Dearborn is to invite the community
to let them know we’re here,” Pastor Neeta Nichols told the newspaper. “We’re
offering various kinds of programming, fun opportunities, so what we can be
engaged with the community.”
Fear not, peeps. I not a theologian, but I’m fairly certain
Peter Cottontail was not at The Last Supper.
