The habit of orthodox and reformed Amarrians having Easter in different dates opens up more business opportunities to us Caldari, so it's all fine.

not everyone uses the same calendar in this world. not everyone follows the same religion. add those 2 up, and you might find that the date for which people celebrate easter might change. i myslef celebrate as always by doing loads of drugs and work. same as usual really.

Incoming wall of text.
Quote: Why does the date for Easter change every year? Have you ever wondered why Easter Sunday can fall anywhere between March 22 and April 25? And why do Eastern Orthodox churches celebrate Easter on a different day than Western churches? These are all good questions with answers that require a bit of explanation.
In Western Christianity, Easter is always celebrated on the Sunday immediately following the Paschal Full Moon date of the year. I had previously, and somewhat erroneously stated, "Easter is always celebrated on the Sunday immediately following the first full moon after the vernal (spring) equinox." This statement was true in 325 AD, when it was established by the Council of Nicea.
However, the course of history has modified the meaning of this instruction, and therefore, a clearer, more accurate explanation is necessary today. There are, in fact, as many misunderstanding about the calculation of Easter dates, as there are reasons for confusion about Easter dates. What follows is an attempt to clear up at least some of the confusion.
In actuality, the date of the Paschal Full Moon is determined from historical tables, and has no correspondence to lunar events. In the year 325 AD astronomers approximated the dates of all the full moons in the year for the Western Christian churches. These were called the Ecclesiastical Full Moon dates, and they have been used ever since 326 AD to determine the date of Easter. So, the Paschal Full Moon is always the first Ecclesiastical Full Moon date after March 20 (which happened to be the vernal equinox date in 325 AD).
The Paschal Full Moon can vary as much as two days from the date of the actual full moon, with dates ranging from March 21 to April 18. As a result, Easter dates can range from March 22 through April 25 in Western Christianity.
Western churches use the Gregorian Calendar to calculate the date of Easter and Eastern Orthodox churches use the Julian Calendar. This is partly why the dates are rarely the same.
Easter and its related holidays do not fall on a fixed date in either the Gregorian or Julian calendars, making them moveable holidays. The dates, instead, are based on a lunar calendar very similar to the Hebrew Calendar.
The Eastern Orthodox Church not only maintains the date of Easter based on the Julian Calendar which was in use during the First Ecumenical Council of Nicea in 325 AD, but also according to the actual, astronomical full moon and the actual vernal equinox as observed along the meridian of Jerusalem. This complicates the matter, due to the inaccuracy of the Julian calendar, and the 13 days that have accrued since 325 AD. This means, in order to stay in line with the originally established (325 AD) vernal equinox, Orthodox Easter cannot be celebrated before April 3 (present day Gregorian calendar), which was March 21 in 325 AD.
Additionally, in keeping with the rule established by the First Ecumenical Council of Nicea, the Eastern Orthodox Church adhered to the tradition that Easter must always fall after the Jewish Passover, since the death, burial and Resurrection of Christ happened after the celebration of Passover. Eventually the Orthodox Church came up with an alternative to calculating Easter based on Passover, and developed a 19-year cycle, as opposed to the Western Church 84-year cycle.
Since the days of early church history, determining the precise date of Easter has been a matter for continued argument. For one, the followers of Christ neglected to record the exact date of Jesus' resurrection. From then on the matter grew increasingly complex.

Quote: yesterday was Easter in the united states, which last I checked was the same around the world since it is a religious holiday and not a national holiday.
"Easter and the holidays that are related to it are moveable feasts, in that they do not fall on a fixed date in the Gregorian or Julian calendars (both of which follow the cycle of the sun and the seasons). Instead, the date for Easter is determined on a lunisolar calendar, as is the Hebrew calendar.
In Western Christianity, Easter always falls on a Sunday between March 22 and April 25 inclusively. The following day, Easter Monday, is a legal holiday in many countries with predominantly Christian traditions. In the Julian calendar used by Eastern Christianity, Easter also always falls on a Sunday from March 22 to April 25 inclusive, which in the Gregorian calendar, due to the 13 day difference between the calendars between 1900 and 2099, are dates from April 4 to May 8 inclusive.
In Western Christianity, Easter marks the end of the forty days of Lent, a period of fasting and penitence in preparation for Easter which begins on Ash Wednesday.
The week before Easter is very special in the Christian tradition. The Sunday before Easter is Palm Sunday and the last three days before Easter are Maundy Thursday or Holy Thursday, Good Friday and Holy Saturday (sometimes referred to as Silent Saturday). Palm Sunday, Maundy Thursday and Good Friday respectively commemorate Jesus' entry in Jerusalem, the Last Supper and the Crucifixion. Holy Thursday, Good Friday, and Holy Saturday are sometimes referred to as the Easter Triduum (Latin for "Three Days"). In some countries, Easter lasts two days, with the second called "Easter Monday." The week beginning with Easter Sunday is called Easter Week or the Octave of Easter, and each day is prefaced with "Easter," e.g. Easter Monday, Easter Tuesday, etc. Easter Saturday is therefore the Saturday after Easter Sunday. The day before Easter is properly called Holy Saturday. Many churches start celebrating Easter late in the evening of Holy Saturday at a service called the Easter Vigil.
Eastertide, the season of Easter, begins on Easter Sunday and lasts until the day of Pentecost, seven weeks later."

Do you really hate Americans so much that you can't wish them a happy easter? I definitely don't want to live in your country to much hatred. Also Americans don't believe the world revolves around them, they believe the world revolves around pizza and beer. The truth will set you free!

Read what? Easter in the united states? As in Easter for Muslims living in the U.S. too? So was I, as eastern Orthodox supposed to look at Bush's calendar and say "Oh so Bush said I need to celebrate my Easter today"? :)
BTW, Super Bowl Sunday is also a "de-facto national holiday" and declares "The World Champions" as I heard on TV that day :)

Wow...you got tunnel vision or something? OK here it is spelled out differently for your one track mind...Easter for the Western Christian Faith, which is practiced by more then "just the united states". That would include most of north and south american christians.
I said United States, because I thought you were intellegent enough to realize that MOST of the US Christian faith practice Western Christianity...just like the rest of north and south america. Next time I will know when speaking to you I must break things down on a lower thinking level so you "get it".
Also this has nothing to do with your personal views on US politics. I said nothing of Bush or even the superbowl. So please inject your personal political gripes in someone elses thread. -------- Semper Fi, Jonis Sinmaker

Dude, you are totally getting off track here. First you claim that you are congratulating a U.S. holiday, and then you claim you are addressing western Christian believers.
FYI, I do live in the U.S. and I am quite familiar with the U.S. demographics. I am also familiar with the way people tend to congratulate Christmas and Easter to me and without any regards to my own religion, and personally I do get offended by that but I simply go over it.
Anyways... Let me re-iterate what you said: Dead Hooker Industries wishes all the Eve Corporations and Alliances a Happy Easter.
Now let me explain what is wrong with this statement. With this statement you have offended not just me, but my corp too. SRBI corp only takes Serbo-croatian-speaking members, and is composed of 80%+ of Eastern Orthodox members. The offense in particular is about your ignorance in generalizing the date of a particular religious holiday.
Since you seem to want to rather focus on the argumant, rather than the problem, i can point out that by replacing the word all with an appropriate term would solve your problem, if you haven't figured this out by now. ------------------------------------------------ (Recruiting ad) SRBI regrutuju!

Originally by: Kamen Words to flame by
I never said it was a US based holiday. I stated it is a W E S T E R N - C H R I S T I A N û F A I T H which most of the north and south american based WESTERN CHRISTIAN FAITH practiced. If you would stop trying to pick my words apart to fuel your own tunnel visioned version of what I said you would see that, but obviously you are intent on fueling the troll fires by keeping this argument going for you own amusement under the guise of offense.
With that said if you are offended then you truly are more ignorant then I. When I wished my happy easter to all of eve it was a blanket holiday greeting because most corporations are multinational and multireligious and instead of sitting here wasting my time finding out which corporations have pilots who practice WESTERN CHRISTIANITY only and listing them one by one, so as not to offend you, I said happy easter to all of the eve corporations and alliances and yet you are the only one to complain and troll a thread that is meant for the spread of holiday cheer and happiness to all the easter egg eating players of eve.
I truly do find it sad that you feel you must post your obviously flame laden posts hinting of your prejudice for WESTERN CHRISTIAN FAITH and/or Americans. I see your argument that you are claiming, but what you are failing to see is that I am not arguing that there are other religions that believe in religious practices other then my own and have not disputed that fact. I hope you enjoy living here in the united states with meàland of the free and home of the brave. I wish that you may keep utilizing our freedom of speech, religion and press, because I have traveled this globe many times over and have been to many countries where people do not have these freedoms. Serbia, Bosnia, and Albania are 3 of the countries that I have been to helping protect the freedoms of those being slaughtered, along side many other UN forces from around the world, for expressing their religious and ethnical practices, which amazes me that you would even be offended by others who express their religious faith.
If it does not apply to you, then why must you feel it is being pushed onto you and retaliate for no reason other then to see yourself speak/type/post. You should really see a shrink because to be offended by something as miniscule as this is quite idiotic to be honest. Its 2008 not 1908àgo church yourself up to someone who will care about your pettyness and then get over yourself.
