[edit] Some Protestants?
Does anyone have a source to which protestant denominations don't observe Palm Sunday?
Lutheranism observes it.
"Which don't" is a rather large question, as there are god-knows-how many denominatons. Certainly when I was in Assembly of God, they didn't. The Baptists probably don't either. But when I was with the Presbyterians, they did. That seems to be a sort of standard breakdown: evangelicals don't pay attention to the liturgical calendar (save Christmas and Easter) whereas mainline Protestants do. Carlo 20:26, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Repetition
Symbolism and Day of the Week have repetitive statements
HAPPY PALM SUNDAY ON APRIL 9, 2006. It's 19:40 on Sat April 8, 2006 in Bayan-Bayanan, Marikina, Metro Manila, Philippines. My site HAPPY LENT SEASON FROM MAR 1, 2006 TO APRIL 15, 2006. Just Surfing. Thanks.
[edit] Misleading
The article says that the Gospel of John states that Jesus "found a colt wandering." It does not. Even the literal translation states that Jesus "having found the colt of a donkey did sit upon it." This does not conflict with the Synoptics which state that a donkey colt was brought to Jesus, except for Matthew which states that a donkey colt with it's mother was brought to Jesus. There is no conflict though the article tries to create one.

timming is every thing , as it seems to be the key to getting the timming correct [after all jesus dying for our sins is the big one as far as christian belief goes ] it must be more important to get all the timmings correct say when we die god says why do you think you are saved? the natural response is when what day ,then i think the logical reply would be the day before his people commemerate exodus ,lets be honest and say his people have reason to get the exodus day right [as we all do ] thus we need to be precice in all the assosiated timmings , how would it be if the day deemed to be his birth day were changed at whim to suit the palm sunday or the moon timming ,the jehovah witness leaflet is saying he died 2 april [after sun down] yet reading your article it says he dies on friday? am i grieving or shouting haliluya ,timming is every thing , jesus must be looking down saying they [my divided churches ] cant even get my death right ,is christ ruling a divided house can timming give to ceaser or christ that which is [must be the key] im told he died 1974 years ago to day ,if he did why is this not written and held sacred , timming allows us to unite across time to all be one for the one saviour of man [who did or didnt die for us on this day] or are the witness decieved? it sure seems no one cares if he did or didnt ,but please wiki pedia give to christ [restore that of christ dying for us ] in its proper time?
