I always found it a bit weird that we celebrate the birth of Jesus on 12/25 but his resurrection is always on a Sunday. I understand 12/25 wasn't his actual birthday, but still.


The date of Christmas was set because it is exactly 9 months from the Feast of Annunciation and it is near the Winter Solstice (which has symbolic significance).

Easter is set based on a lunisolar calendar similar to Passover and the Hebrew calendar.

Because it’s Ash Wednesday and I’m a catholic, not a heathen.
