You may say it up to Pentecost, btw.

Yep... Together with Jews, in spite of the rules accepted in one of the first oecumenical councils

Maybe I read that wrong, but Jews don't celebrate Easter. They do however celebrate passover, which I believe started on the 16th.

Considering Christians can't even decide what year Jesus was actually born in it seems rather pointless to argue over what day to celebrate all these different days. Just celebrate them. Who cares what day it really was? You'll probably never know for sure.

In Russian "Passover" and "Easter" is the same word -- Пасха.
But I don't care a fig, just remembered some cultural features.

I beleave that all people should not take there religion too seriously. If less people took there religion seriously there would be alot less problems.

Oh mike you poor bugger. The cost of being a moderator. Not worth it some times is it.

A position of authority is no place for a polemic loudmouth. That's why Pat Buchanan keeps losing the presidential race.

If I argue the opposing point with my self would that help?

No, then I'll have to move the topic to Culture and Politics.

I think it is a good idea. Sorry for not starting it there.

Hmm, I wonder if I should move my fridge to culture and politics. It doesn't have any politics, but theres a bunch of bannans in there that certianly have plently of culture !

Oh, well then. Argue away, z80

haha! I'm not going to argue with my self on the forum, I'm able to argue with my self much quicker in my own brain. Didn't you here that popping noise?

I could say a few things about religion--especially the Catholics--but I won't.

catholics agitate me, but jews particualy annoy me. They have very short memories. I was just watching some jew on the TV going on about Hollicost day or something, and then, there he is going off about the pallistinians. The pallistinians are today, what the jews where in WWII. arrrr. Why can't they see that???
