Celtic...as I understand it, most all the Christian holidays are taken from pagan rituals. It was easier to merge the two and have the populas accept Christianity.

I celebrate the Resurrection but not Lent. Just wasn't brought up to even know what Lent was and now it doesn't seem to matter to me.

This is the first year in a while that the Protestant and Orthodox religions celebrate the Resurrection on the same Sunday.

I'm going to services on St. Martin this year and am hoping to take my friends with me.
