You guys do realize that the "trans day of visibility" is over 10 years old and falls on March 31st every year right? Biden didn't "proclaim" it today, he merely mentioned it in a speech.

I agree, but he didn't make today about that and cancel Easter or even put it above Easter. He just mentioned it.

Okay, good to know. Many other traditions are and have been around for a lot longer and have more followers. Easter is a pretty sacred day to the majority of the world. When a government proclaims something and puts out a memo, then skews the Easter Day at the WH also, by saying nothing religious is to happen, it shows their true character.
WHo cares about trans day. Most people dont give a shit about it. But, when you do what the WH did, it just pisses us off, and that is why they did it.

That is a copout. Pedophiles are everywhere in every society, jobs and religion.. The Catholic Church ****ed up big time, they did. Pope should have went crusade on all the pedos within the Church when found. But he failed.
As far as the rest, its a sickness that needs to be eradicated.

Catholicism is only part of Christianity. There's endless Christian options that are not Catholic, and most do not follow their rituals. But I'm sure you already knew that.

You're just looking for an excuse cuz you want to stay Jewish.

What religious items were cancelled? He asked that kids don't "include any questionable content, religious symbols, overtly religious themes, or partisan political statements". Last I heard the Easter Bunny and the tradition of Easter eggs had nothing to do with the resurrection.

Maybe too appropriate today in more ways than one, but a funny guy.

The Catholic church has been infiltrated and corrupted by Marxism, as happened in the Soviet Union to the churches left that were not destroyed.

From a Commie's point-of-view: Corrupting the Catholic church is The Big Kahuna. Turn it into a Marxist propaganda organ and the others will follow or collapse.

Anybody remember Pope John Paul? Him, Margaret Thatcher, and Ronald Reagan blazed the trail to freedom for those under the Communist boot in Europe. The entire Soviet Union was doomed after that.

And now, 40 years later, the pope himself is a Marxist. It's a slow-growing cancer that usually goes undetected until it has already metastasized and is difficult, if not impossible, to treat.

It is a little bit tied into Catholicism.

Going through Covid, my wife and I played the game and got all the shots boosters and masks. Wife still wears a mask when we go out but I don't and it is what it is.

Wife and her friend text daily but have not seen each other in nearly 4 years now and they only live a 1/2 mile away. The woman and her husband basically stay inside unless going to the store and only one does and it is 6 am when not many are inside. ll hooded up, mask, safety glasses.

Now when they get home, they go through the garage, strip down, put the fresh clothes they just put on an hour earlier into the laundry basket. Then take a shower and get dressed all over again.

They will not buy and local baked goods or go to some fast food place or out to dinner at all. None of this shit happened before covid.

At the beginning of Covid, they got a rescue dog. Big thing, kind of a lab cross something. Nice and lean. I only saw it once a few weeks after when it kind of ran away one hot fkn July afternoon.

They called my wife asking for help and I didn't feel like it. Feeling bad about it and I was on my way home from work, I screw i and off I went. They had been looking all damn day and I found the dog a couple minutes after I started because they were looking local and I went way off.

Nice looking dog. She sent my wife a pic the other day. Looks like a fat white seal with legs. Not even the same dog. He gets no exercise and just eats all day.

Now for holidays and birthdays, the lady will bring something she cooked or baked over to our house. We use to return the favor because judging from past comments, she will throw anything home cooked from someone in the garbage, so my wife will not make the effort.

Last summer and again a couple months ago, her husband (who is not disabled at all) had hernia surgery and again when it didn't take. He also had a eye surgery thing. Each time she waited out in the car (FJ) Seats lined with a plastic tarp for when he came out and then they threw it away when they got home.

Her mom is still alive but dad passed a couple years ago up in Colorado. What a family mess because of her covid protocols. Basically she went but did not associate with any family or friends and went to the funeral home for her own private viewing. The showed up at the cemetery after everyone left.

You know those free Covid test that the gov sends out, she has a respectable supply of them and if either one so much as sneezes....

Thing is, she was never even remotely this way prior to Covid. Since then, she and her husband are pissing their lives away.

Easter IS religious if you must know. Just like Christmas before the invention of Santa Claus. To use a religious term and then request you don’t do anything religious- only the truly ignorant justify this.

Now I don't think I want to come back around. I can't imagine how ****ed up the world will be 200 years from now, but Planet of the Apes comes to mind.
