Don't feel bad. The meat thing is purely tradition, so even if there were a hell, you couldn't really go there for that.
Easter in itself is a purely pagan holiday to worship the fertility goddess named Eastre (which makes sense, since rabbits and eggs are more easily associated with fertility than they are Jesus). It wasn't until false Christians decided they could use all that sweet pagan money that they made it a "Christian" holiday, because hey, if those pagans are going to do this anyway, might as well let them do it in our church and make them pay a tithe, right?
