I heard they changed it back to Good Friday.

The same crowd who insist on calling Christmastime “the holidays” while denying it’s because they don’t want to say “Christ...”.

They changed it to "something more ecumentical".
It's GOOD FRIDAY! It commemorates the day our Lord and Savior was crucified. How can anyone get something ecumentical out of that? It's completely nuts!

Let’s rename the Jewish holidays something secular too. Let’s call Passover “Flat Bread Day” and Purim “Whew That was a Close One.”

setting off a storm of complaints from Christians and union members whose contracts give them that day off If you can't recognize the day for what it is, you can't have it off.
Heck, let's see City Hall open on Sundays now.

They only reason that it is a holiday is because it’s Good Friday. Otherwise, no reason to take it off.

How about Crucifixion Day? Because Hanging Day wouldn’t be accurate.

“Spring Holiday.”
Wouldn’t that favor a Wiccan holiday or Mother Earth or something like that?
