I just realized I don't think I've ever specifically asked.
Don't Eastern Catholics celebrate Pascha, on the same date Orthodoxy calculates the Resurrection? (Or do they?)
If so, then they usually celebrate the Resurrection on a different day that the Pope and rest of Western Christianity?
It just suddenly strikes me as odd in that case, since they are in communion with Rome and subject to her.
Do I get this wrong? Thanks for any info!
(And forgive me please, I'm not asking to stir up contentions, if it causes anyone to feel that way.)
