I guess this is a hard question to answer in that I have never known another culture as intimately as I know my own. I like in and love it because it is all I have ever known. It is part of who I am, no matter where I go, I will carry its effects on me. But there is deep cultural belief that all of our religious holidays actually started when the events we celebrate happened. It would be nice to see the actual historical beginnings stressed as opposed to cultural and religious traditions. These cultural beliefs go across religious boundaries and are thought by so many people that it will most likely never change.
