"Martyrs' Carnival" by Jay Lake
(Short Story)
Set on a world with a desert, one police Inspector finds herself dealing with a group of Christian fanatics who, every Easter re-create the crucifixion, disrupting the life of the colony. She decides to deal with the problem one and for all and, like many others in other stories, discovers that the price of dealing with fanatics may not be worth it and may endanger her own life.
