Archbishop of Canterbury plans to ‘move’ Easter Date

At present, the religious holiday marking the death and resurrection of Jesus is held “the first Sunday after the full moon that occurs on or soonest after 21 March”.
However, according to the Telegraph, Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby intends to do away with 2000 years of tradition, to introduce a more ‘set’ Easter that doesn’t vary so widely year-to-year.
The Anglican leader will enter into talks with Catholics and other Christian groups with an aim of fixing a date for Easter.
