Irrelevant Holidays

I think it is more important to remember what the REAL holiday is, somthing im supprised you didn't go into more. St. Valintines day is suposed to be about some prisoner that wrote to his lover such epic letters....why do we celebrate? mabey because such an annoying shallow man died. Thats a good enough reason for me. As for thanksgiving....plymoth rock...blahblahblah...pilgrams...blahblahblah...its not as much about being thankfull to others, as being thankfull to god. Yes, this is a poor reason to have a holiday, as those who celebrate it for its original purpose should be doing this every day, but some people are so shallow and selfabsorbed that they realy dont get it. And finaly christmass. Christmass is the celebration of the birth of christ. Noone knows why it is celebrated in winter, as noone knows when christ was born exactly.
