holiday
meh asked:


I don’t get why certain religions get special treatment at schools.
You don’t see Jehovah’s Witnesses getting holiday breaks, but you do Christians. Are certain religions considered more important than other in the school system or something?
How do you feel atheists? Should we even HAVE time off for religions? Shouldn’t everyone just take their own time to do their religious practices and not jeopardize their children’s education? Why should ALL children miss school JUST so a CERTAIN group of people can worship their God? It doesn’t make any sense to me! Your thoughts?

If you study History you will find that the majority of people in the US were Christians and schools set their calenders accordingly. Once Holidays are set it is hard to remove them. No it has nothing to do with separation of church and state which only had to do with making sure that the government never set up a church like was done in England.

All peoples have holidays.
Spring break celebrates the change of season, a pagan rite.

It is clearly a pagan rite when one considers what most do to celebrate this holiday.
