Religion does not belong in government, at all. Our state has allowed people to make religious public relations campaigns commonplace in our state buildings by placing crosses, xmas trees, menorahs and atheists placards in the lobby of our capital. Same as with the federal faith based initiatives, it has got to stop.
Or, we could go with an alternative "holiday", Giveaway Day, to encourage people to giveaway to friends and family or the community on June 25th, and do it in celebration of a simple life where your worth is valued more by what you giveaway, rather than what you keep. It would be a way to distribute wealth in a more equitable way and teach earth sustainability with a greener consumer ethic.
If we have to have a federal holiday for a religious purpose, we have to have one that is not. Or neither, there is no other way to prove that we are a nation based on democratic principals and whats left of our constitution.
