Well, as I mentioned on a pic of Elton Pot's Easter's not truly a Christian
holiday. They got it from the Pagans who celebrated Easter as an honoring
of birth and fertility. And the symbols of these were the egg for birth and
the rabbit for fertility. So since the Christians took over the holiday
and gave it their own meaning, but kept the Pagan symbols it's just created a
bit of confusion.

A Christian Atheist is pretty much what is referred to as a ‘Humanist
Christian’, I.E., someone who feels the Bible has some good stuff in it, but
otherwise ignores God and the supernatural. Similar to Deism, in a way.
