So no more father Christmas in the USA?


Yeah, I asked myself the same thing. Christmas, Easter and Valentine's Day were being celebrated before the USA existed, so I guess they're all out. Think of how the nation's economy (not to mention love and joy) would suffer! Good news, though! Kwanzaa originated in the states! And it's not religious, so we could all celebrate Kwanzaa!

I'm not sure how one determines which religion belongs to which country, but only a very few secular religions "belong" to the US, as the EvilBat pointed out.

Ugh! That sounds so terribly boring! LOL! And... communist. I'd rather have a colorful pallet than one of a few muted greys and browns. Here's an idea... Let's keep Christmas AND Freedom and then EVERYONE will be free to celebrate it the way they want to - or not celebrate it at all! How 'bout that?
