Columbus day has no valid fucking reason to be on there I completely agree.

We can differ on Christmas and that is fine. I have no issue if someone believes that Jesus walked the Earth, was the son of God, or if people feel he was just another man. My only issue with it on the list is that it is a Federal Holiday and I feel the Federal Government should not at any time for any reason recognise, endorse, pay homage to, or stop doing its duty for any holiday based on anyone's religion or lack thereof one. Even if it did effect so much in the world. Many religious figures have and everyone will admit that. So none of them deserve a holiday. Celebrate those on your own time and at your own costs. If private business wishes to acknowledge it that is fine though.
