[poll] Meaning of Whitsun / Pentecost

[pne]

Apparently, there are a lot of people who say they are Christians but don't know much about their own faith (such as how many apostles Jesus had or what is celebrated at Christmas). I thought I'd post a poll to see what people know about Whitsun / Pentecost (different people seem to use different names; as far as I know, both words refer to the same thing), which is coming up this weekend.

[Poll #300235]

(and *digs in brain* the birthday of something or other...maybe the deaconate?)

The birthday of the church, as that was the first day that the apostles preached to the world, gentile and jew alike.
