We were at church today and I was told that it is traditional for hispanics to celebrate this most holy of days by - you guessed it - bashing in pinatas! Argh! That’s all well and good for them to do in Catholic places like Mexico, but the reason it came up today is because my church was having a pinata party after the service! I couldn’t believe it! And they wanted us all to bring our kids to whack at the pinata while we had donuts and coffee.

Its bad enough that these horrible things have invaded birthday celebrations, but now they’re desecrating the resurrection of our Savior with it.

I informed the pastor that if the church ever had another pinata themed event I would be switching churches.
