What 3 holidays do christians celebrate to commemorate Jesus?

This is kind of a trick question. Christmas is used by Christians to celebrate His birth although the tradition is bitterly rooted. December 25th is also set aside to commemorate the birth of all pagan gods. Which is a insult to God but most Christians are ignorant of this fact.Good Friday is commemorated for the death of Christ on the cross and Easter to mark His Resurrection. Although this is rooted in the pagan holiday celebrating Ishtar. Truly the only holiday we SHOULD celebrate is the Feast of the Passover. But that's kind of a moot point as what we SHOULD do and what we DO do is two different things.
