The illusion of easter and other holidays

I suppose that I should start off with the fact that I am rather against religion in general. Religion has never done anything beneficial throughout human history. The only thing that it has done is given people a reason to kill each other over differences in belief.

I am not quite sure why good friday and easter monday are holidays in this country. Jewish and Muslim people do not get public holidays for their religious occasions. I am not sure why there should be "preferential treatment" in a sense. Rather don't have any religious public holidays, it helps to promote unity and non-discrimination.

SA team selections are in and I am going to France in August :). I can't wait, although the nerves are already starting to set in.

I am almost finished my latest portfolio entry. Will post it once I am finished.

Some of my new favourite quotes:
Unrequited love is a waste of time. Just walk it off. There. I said it.
Sorry, I think you mean "who," not, "whom". People WHO correct grammar in casual conversation are obnoxious. Now run along. Men are talking.
I can be happy alone, sure. I can be happy without ice cream, too. If we're being hypothetical.
I think you are beautiful and I would like to kiss you. I can think up some clever lines, if you'd prefer. But I wanted to say that first.
I have super powers and a costume. Every night I panic just outside my door, but every night I try again.
