The Easter Bonnets From the Victorian Era.
In the 19th century, especially during the Victorian era, fashion was highly formal and symbolic. Women wore bonnets regularly, and Easter gave them the chance to showcase a fresh, often elaborate bonnet that reflected the joy and color of spring. It became a social and fashion statement, not just a religious one.

Happy Easter! It's the first time I've attempted to paint a religious subject, so I hope you like it.

Imagine Jesus showing up today: brown-skinned, Middle Eastern, speaking uncomfortable truths, lifting up the vulnerable, and calling out the rich and powerful.
He moved among the outcast.
He challenged empire, not to seize control, but to dismantle it with love and justice.
And today? The loudest 'Christians' would label him a threat. Too political. Too foreign. Too soft. Too woke.
They’d call ICE. Put him on a plane to El Salvador.
Then go live-stream a sermon about 'faith.'
It’s strange, really, how a religion built on a man crucified by the state for challenging power has become a tool for protecting it.
It's hard to imagine Jesus being welcome in many of the USA churches bearing his name.

A must watch documentary especially now when the biggest cult in the world (Christianity) is celebrating their fantasy story about the creator of the universe. See how this cult is infiltrating politics and influencing decisions that affect all of us.
Terrible.
Us, as humans, have a lot to celebrate if we look at the reality around us. Evolution, DNA, stars, the universe. We are all part of the same real and amazing story. Time to let go of these silly fantasies.
