The skeptic in me is asking why celebrate Pascha? I am talking about the "midnight mass" (Western term) in particular. I don't want run of the mill dogmatic answers. I want to hear from someone who has struggled with the same question.

The question should be "why not"? Since Christ is risen, we are perfectly justified in celebrating His victory over death.
