If you privately want a religious celebration on your personal property, or on church property, great! Go for it!

To be a proper american do you have to celebrate MLK day? I'm sure the KKK types are sick of public official implying that you do. To be a proper american do you have to celebrate Columbus Day? I'm sure some Native Americans types are sick of public officials implying that you do. To be a proper American do you have to eat turkey on Thanksgiving? I'm sure the vegan types are sick of public officials implying that you do. If American society should be sterilized of its religious/cultural heritage for the benefit of a fringe group like atheists....why shouldn't it be sterilized of other cultural beliefs for the sake of the other fringe groups?
