Holy Week should be kept holy why party?

[Maikeru]

ok raman cguro thats the way how we celebrate holy week...
handum naman na.. also we can eat meat na gani unta ana. dba same rana if mag death aniv ato mga lolo.

I respectfully disagree. IMO Catholics supposedly don't celebrate at Holy week. We observe Holy Week. It is not just about remembering nor it isn't celebrating a death anniversary. It is called a Holy Week and not a Feast/Party Week for many reasons. IMO, it is a time for a self-check or evaluation on our self whether we have been more like Christ or we've gone astray.

Holy things/days should be kept Holy. We Catholics always say we believe in Christ, we believe to "Bro", But why do only a few can observe and respect those days/things that our church recognizes as Holy? Even misleading it into a celebration?

Is this how we revere Christ?

I never said it is the only time we evaluate / have self check. But I should have mentioned that
My point is, keep Holy days/things holy.

i agree with maikeru.
the holy week is only 7 days of the year why can't we observe it with due respect?
we still have 358 days to party.

i don't think nga nay pinugsanay ngari. but with all due respect mas mu respetar paman gani ang mga non-christians to our holy week.

As far as I know it is a Catholic practice so mga Catholics rapud moObserve ani nga practice. Makes sense?
