Why do we say it is Greek Orthodox eater and NOT just Orthodox Easter: Why does the word Greek have to be in the equation: As Cypriots we have our own separated different identity to the way Greeks worship Religion thanks to St Barnaby: So can I suggest changing the posting to Orthodox Easter and not Greek Orthodox Easter:NOT only do Greeks celebrate Easter that day BUY also On that day the Russians, Serbs and many others have their Easter as well:
Do the Muslim say Turkish Islam/Muslims? How does it work:
I know some say Catholics and Orthodox Christians: |

I normally hear it as Orthodox Easter
Note that Orthodox Christianity is split between people following the Gregorian and the Justinian calendars (which is why Yugoslavians and Russians have Christmas on the 7th January)
Hence the distinction |
