Yes Apr 11, 2020

Because of the social distancing, Easter will be quite different and I’ll be alone. I can’t remember the last time this happened. Usually, some of my extended family (30 people in total) gets together and we go out to lunch at a restaurant or we meet at my brother’s house in the beach. Well, not this year!

Yes Apr 11, 2020

I miss my family in East Frisia (all of them elder relatives and my brothers, in normal times always rushing in for the traditional Easter Fire on Saturday before Easter)

Question should never have been allowed. Apr 12, 2020

I don't like this question.
Maybe 'cos it is religious, but more because it is Jewish/Christian centred.
What happened to Ramadan, the Sikh and Hindu festivals for instance in April 2020 this year?
This question should never have been allowed as it stands.

Yes, I even can't believe it.... Apr 12, 2020

Usually we Christians, especially the Catholic faithfuls, the is the biggest celebration/ feast in the church than that of the birth of Christ. I can't even believe that this festival is going to pass just like that.... Anyway social distance is one way for us to keep safe.

To me it's all about the chocolate eggs. And according to some sources, the so-called religious aspect is more pagan than anything else:

"Are you celebrating Passover / Easter differently this year?"


No. I am neither a Christian nor Jewish. But I believe in the Birth of Spring, in a pagan way. Here she comes!

Not a relevant question Apr 12, 2020

This question shouldn't be asked not only because it is centred on religion.
We are facing a global health crisis, it is implied that Covid-19 is affecting everyone in the world, and has an impact on our daily lives, on Muslims, Jews, Christians, Sikhs, Hindus, atheists and agnostics, etc.
It is not a relevant question.
