Why? Easter really has nothing to do with him. It's the celebration of Ishtar and the coming of spring. It was just one of many Pagen celebrations throughout the year that Emperor Constantine hijacked to get his subjects to convert to Christianity.

The bunny and the eggs are fertility symbols to represent the rebirth of nature after a long winter.

That is COMMON misconception meant to throw people off the TRUE meaning of Resurrection day - commonly knows and Easter. It has nothing to do with Bunnies, Eggs or Pagan anything.
