In that case then all religious implied holidays should be taken out because no matter what they are today, since they were steeped in some type of relgion over the centuries, they are still considered to be religious holidays.
My position is that they are, with the exception of Valentines day, and I am all for the abolition of Valentines day on a global scale.

Why am I wrong to be upset that a holiday with less religious implications is being attacked while others more explicit in the majoritys religion is allowed to stay.
Less implication implies implication, there by qualifying it as a religious event. choose your words more carefully. You are wrong because as it qualifies in your explanation it should be barred from being celebrated at a publicly funded institution.

Again, where are you seeing little kids in school being taught about pagan beliefs and religion? You havent yet answered any of my questions relating to those along with symbolic religious scenes being put out on the public common grounds. I wonder why that is?
Pictures of witches and jack-o-lanterns have religious significance, regardless of your belief. If they are erected in a school, they should violate church/state seperation rules. Asked and answered. Ignored, but implied none the less.
