YOUTH CANNOT CRACK EASTERWednesday April 4,2007 BRITAIN’S youngsters have no idea why we celebrate the Easter holiday. In a sign that Britain is losing its Christian values, one in six 16-24-year-olds do not know what happened on Good Friday, when Jesus was crucified. And one in 10 do not understand the meaning of Easter Sunday, the day of his resurrection.
The survey of 1,130 people was carried out for Somerfield as it gears up for the Easter rush to buy chocolate eggs. The news led the Church of England to warn that the true meaning of the festival could become “as hollow as most chocolate eggs”. |
