I guess the only "christian holiday" that is legally observed here is christmas. easter is a sunday so that remains safe for the mainstream public. the issue becomes a pay issue. any legal, "bank" holidays would require holiday pay. that can get VERY pricey for and employer.

one of the things I loved about living in Germany was all of the religious holidays everyone would have off! getting to work was VERY easy those days!
