with the cross, raising from the dead, forgiveness of sins or do you go more towards the pagan celebration with the bunnies & eggs.

first of all, pagans have no reason to celebrate Easter. Easter is a Christian holiday, as is Christmas. They can spin it any way they want to still celebrate something and get gifts, but they have no right to because the meaning is not something they acknowledge.
Easter represents Jesus dying on the cross to cleanse people of their sins and enable them to go to Heaven. There is nothing wrong with bunnies and Easter eggs for Christians- I have always celebrated that way. but we also go to church, because giving thanks to the Lord is what that day is all about. It is a very holy event.
atheists, pagans, etc: get your own holiday.
