Rabbits lay eggs, then paint them, hiding them for little kids to find them.
It's obviously a symbol of christianity.
You see, Jesus knew that the person who would lead the church must be pure, but he also knew, that no man could be pure enough, so he instead chose a Rabbit to be the first Pope, however, along the way, man got jealous of the rabbit, and opposed him, taking the pope crown for himself.
Ever wonder why the pope's crown is really large?
Because it wasn't meant for a human, it was meant for a rabbit.
