Christian Et-Tu?

                                                        Happy Fat Tuesday!

    Thats Mardi Gras for those linguistically challenged readers. Yes sir, it's Lentmas Eve down here in Christianity Land, where many of us will partake in a sacrifice to prove something or other about us minus god. I think i'll do myself a favor and sacrifice those Peeps Bunnies. Of course I only eat them on Easter Sunday, so it isn't that much of a sacrifice. I'm not one to partake in Lent, not to sound blasphemous- but I generally have nothing to sacrifice.
      That being said- Mardi Gras is slightly less pointless as Saint Patricks Day. At least Mardi Gras (almost) has something to do with Easter (If you don't understand the religious implications, I'd suggest using this nice website .  St. Patrick is about as much of a nobody as Larry from Hoboken N.J.,  and yet he has a holiday which mainly consists of pinching people, and a great night at O'Malley's Irish Pub. I mean of all the Saints, why does he get a holiday (I looked him up, much less exiting then dying for our sin.). Alot of Saints are much cooler than he is *cough* Joan Of Arc *cough* .
     I'll leave it at that, I don't want to seem like i'm ranting about a stupid religious holiday, and I have a good feeling God doesn't mind. I'm just posing a question as to why we have religious holidays like these. If you think i'm wrong to say Mardi Gras and Paddy's Day are dumb holidays and shouldn't be considered "religious" holidays go ahead and comment. If I wanted to actually partake in a RELIGIOUS  holiday this month, i'd wait till tomorrow- which fortunately doesn't go great with a beer.
