What really sucks about this is yet on another Catholic Holiday. Not many know who Saint Valentine was or how he died.

For that matter, not many know "Valentine's Day" is actually "SAINT Valentine's Day." I'm guessing many would be stunned if they knew they were "celebrating" a "religious holiday"!
