Quote:May 23 is World Turtle Day, celebrating the tortoise and the turtle. Started by the American Tortoise Rescue (ATR) in 2000, the annually celebrated day shines a spotlight on care, conservation and awareness of the oldest living reptiles in the world.

Seems like a further nod to the Hindus to me.

Lets get religion out of this holiday.
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

I love turtles. Many sea/ocean turtles eat jellyfish. And I hate jellyfish.
