Having read the lj's these last few days ... there were others celebrating Passover as well. Maybe y'all should get together and do some fannish challenges over the Christian holidays? Try to balance it out? I know it doesn't make up for the cultural blindness that goes on, but at least you can claim something for yourself?

Loki has many stories about he and the three Jehovah Witness kids sitting in the classroom doing extra work while the rest of the school was rehearsing the Christmas assembly.

The thing is - Christians may have to find the time, but they are permitted to write during their holidays. Observant Jews *aren't*. Major holidays, such as the first and last two days of Passover, have many of the same rules as the Sabbath, with the exceptions of carrying in public and cooking. For that matter, most of the Jews on LJ and in fandom aren't Orthodox and have different interpretations of these rules, so they *do* write and such.

It's a logistical thing that I can't and don't expect anyone to make any adjustmants about because I'm weird, but I think I can be frustrated about it.
