[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You know what, I’m fine with no PTO for Christmas if some lady is mad that she doesn’t get PTO for Good Friday.

Eliminate all religious federal holidays. 
Eliminate church marriages for civil unions.

That’s the only way Christians won’t feel attacked. I lived in China and didn’t get PTO for Christmas. They only have national federal holidays, which for us would be July 4th and maybe Thanksgiving.

Do you espouse the same for Chinese holidays for which people in China are given the day off?  Nations often have cultural holidays with religious roots.[/quote]

You tell me what those are, I’ll wait….[/quote]

The festival was long marked as a cultural festival in China and is a public holiday in China, Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan. The People's Republic of China's government established in 1949 did not initially recognize the Dragon Boat Festival as a public holiday but reintroduced it in 2008 alongside two other festivals in a bid to boost traditional culture.

In some regions of China, people, especially children, wear silk ribbons or threads of 5 colors (blue, red, yellow, white, and black, representing the five elements) on the day of the Dragon Boat Festival.[15] People believe that this will help keep evil away.[15]

Other common activities include hanging up icons of Zhong Kui (a mythic guardian figure),[/quote]
