@The Enlightened Shepherd

i subscribed to orthodox theology, monarchism and worldview at one point in the past, briefly

a lot of gay mystical nazis approach religion from a sensual or pragmatic perspective

but at that time i was leaning more towards greek understanding of orthodoxy, and evne russian to an extent, than to Serbian

Serbian orthodox Christians are mostly fervently anti-Catholic, while I was not as much

Catholicism is to an extent, considered a mortal enemy of Serbs, and Vatican is seen as a main culprit of crimes against Serbs done by Catholics, even more than the people themselves

what's the most major religious festival

Christmass and Easter among Christians

how are both celebrated, briefly

is there any contrast to western europe/america

Christmass by fasting and burning of those great bonfires on the christmass eve

how many people would fast

and by traditional lunches and religious services on christmass day itself

depends

full fasting would often be performed by not especially pious people due to health benefits

if you had to just throw a %age out

On Easter, dying eggs, fasting and "breaking" of eggs is performed

and abstinence from all work on Good Friday

I'm unsure

how closely is this adhered to

of general population, notm any perform the entire fast

Good Friday, not working

of pious, many do

nobody does anything on good friday

any length of the fast

would count

towards the figure

both fastings last 40 days

if someone even makes the intention to fast but doesn't do a single day

I'm inclined to ask you to consider that too

but may not be reasonable

10% of adults?

the rule is no meat or dairy, more strict rules which monks adhere to include no oil on certain days, and no meat whatsoever on certain days, including fish

90% of people skipping meat for a day?
