Easter greetings irony

Thought this was an interesting store banner. There's a distinct segregation in religious beliefs here in South Africa. As noted with this sign in the mall, Easter is recognized as a significant holiday in the Christian Culture. The irony is - if you're celebrating the Christian Easter, you focus on Christ & leave the 'bunnies & eggs' for those that see easter as a reason to party and a good time for time off of work.
Although this store recognizes the Christian significance, the banner is still full of secular symbols of Easter. I'm at least glad the 'Christian part' is acknowledged, but seems like a little more education is needed. Maybe we'll get more accurate next year?!
