As someone who has been researching the liturgical calendar of Medieval England, I mourn the loss of so many beautiful Catholic festivals, holidays and feast days. All uniquely English right down to special foods and clothing. At least the Southern European Catholics keep up some really wonderful Catholic holidays. Beauty is truth, truth is beauty.

Protestant opposition to Catholic holidays is merely the logical conclusion of early Catholic opposition to Jewish holidays. And unlike Catholic holidays, Jewish holidays are actually in the Bible, but Catholics have always been forbidden to observe them (until recently).

Catholic/Orthodox chrstianity was, after all, the first Protestantism.
