All Christian celebrate Easter, but not all Christians celebrate Easter at the same time. The Greek Orthodox Church celebrates Easter at a different time from the rest of the Christian denominations.

Right on, Eds. Christ is risen every Sunday (or Saturday evening if you're so inclined), the more religious individuals, regardless of denomination, recognise this, and do not take part in the pagan orgins of a holy day in spring time, or bunnies or eggs and that lot. Unfortunately, because of the commercialization it is misunderstood and causes some people to get upset and make impolie comments and accusations. Anyone can eat chocolate eggs and marshamllow bunnies, they're not only for Christians. Not all Christians observe the Lenten Season either. What ever helps everyone sleep at night, and everyone else, too. Good question!

Banshe,
We certainly do not celebrate Easter any differently than we do any other Sunday. There is no scriptural example or instruction to do so. We are told that the first century Christians Met, Gave, and had the Lord's Supper on the First Day of the week. We do so since they did. Our service is much the same as their's was. We use the New Testament as our guide. It is our hope that GOD is pleased with this. Have a great evening and a wonderful Lord's Day.
Thanks,
Eds

No, not all christians celebrates easter. All christian believe that Christ was risen from the dead, yet, there were group of christians who never take the date as the catholic and protestant fixed it to celebrate. I can name one here in the Philippines, the Church of Christ does not celebrate easter or Christmas or holy week either! But they are Christians.

Easter is a celebration of the resurrection. Christianity is by it's very nature a resurrection religion, it's very foundation. If you do not believe in the resurrection, then I strongly doubt that you are a true Christian. BTW, I do not and am not, so what would I know?

Not all, here in South Africa members of the Seventh Day Adventist don't celebrate Easter although they are Christians.

No, some denominations discourage any religious celebration not specifically commanded in the New Testament. And for those who do recognize Easter, there are many different ideas and celebrations of it.
