That’s true, but if the moon cannot be seen on a cloudy day a new month does not occur. That’s what I mean by observational.

We are so infiltrated, at almost every level, by muzzie (SPIT!) filth and terrorists-in-waiting, it was only a matter of time ‘til this happened. Obummer did indeed “fundamentally change America”, forever, in 8 short hellish years. I never thought it could happen.

Scum is like bacteria. It spreads and multiplies wherever liberalism takes root.

Idunno. As an Orthodox Christian, I do not observe secular civil holidays, except for July 4 and Thanksgiving. (The latter is not really a secular holiday, and might make a good Orthodox feast day anyway.) (Not all Orthodox follow my practice, either.)

Making muslim holidays American civil holidays would make that many new “holidays” not worth observing!!!! PHOOEY!!!!

Besides that, the only appropriate muslim observances in the USA would be September 11 and April 15 (date of the Boston Marathon bombings in 2013). Phooey again!!!!

If the Muslim days are made Federal Holidays then surely our 12 Great Feasts plus all of Holy Week and Pascha deserve the same!

It is because of my observance of Orthodox Holy Days that I do not observe most secular civil holidays. Enough is enough!!

Of course, if they add muslim holidays, it will be a case of “enough is too much”!!!

One Christian federal holiday, none from any other religion, and we need 5 Islamic federal holidays. To begin. And prayer rooms in all business'. In the interest of. Why not simply erase the history, like we do with the Civil War.

I think Trump will carry at least 40 states in 2020.

What 10 blue states do you expect him to flip?

Since the Islamic holidays are based upon the loony lunar observational calendar they cannot be predicted in advance.

We haven't had any problems arriving at Easter.

I’m not even in favor of Jewish holidays being federal holidays.
