I realize I am probably not the first person to make this observation, but it occurs to me that in the United States we have four most prominent holidays:
One for eating (Nov. 25ish)
One for stuff (Dec. 25th)
One for drinking (Dec. 31)
One for explosives (July 4)
Arguably, the next most significant holiday is for sex (Feb. 14)
So here we have a (admittedly reductionist) distillation of what American culture celebrates! ;-)
Christianity & Race: 'Ye shall know them by their fruit,' yet what 'Strange Fruit' we have...
