Three blondes pass away and find themselves standing before St. Peter. He tells them that before they could enter the Kingdom of Heaven, they would have to tell him what the meaning of Easter is. So, the first blonde responds "Easter is a holiday where they have a big feast and we give thanks and eat turkey." St. Peter shaking his head says "No" and he banishes her from heaven’s gates. The second blonde jumps right in and says "Easter is when we celebrate Jesus's birthday and exchange gifts." St. Peter again shakes his head and says "No" and he banishes her as well. The third blond shaking her head at the complete stupidity of the other two and states quite convincingly "Easter is a Christian holiday that coincides with the Jewish holiday of Passover. Jesus was celebrating the Passover feast with His disciples when He was betrayed by Judas and the Romans arrested Him. The Romans hung Him on a cross and eventually He died. Then they buried Him in a tomb behind a very large boulder.” Impressed, St. Peter said: “Very good!” Then she continued “Now every year the Jews roll away the boulder and Jesus comes out. If He sees His shadow, we have six more weeks of basketball.”
