[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree OP. In my opinion, Valentines and Halloween are American celebrations that are only very loosely tied to religions. Growing up, every religion (except Jehovah’s Witness) celebrated them and they were just fun class parties. Now we are trying too hard to be PC and are not making anyone happy. Honoring and learning about other cultures is fantastic, but we should not need to erase the American customs to do that.[/quote] I don't think Halloween or Valentine's Day are in any danger of being erased. They are strong enough to withstand even the blow of elementary-school students not longer having in-class Halloween or Valentine's Day parties. Because that's what this really is: people who are very upset that their kids in public school don't get to have in-class Halloween or Valentine's Day parties.[/quote]
