i think there should be a holiday for people who have abandoned an old faith. it's a common experience, communities are built upon it, and odds are you lost 2 or 3 holidays in the process. you should get a new one in that transaction!

in reply to @Webster's post:
I feel strongly that it's important for atheists and other non-religous people (especially the formerly religious) to make up their own new holidays and rituals that they can find meaning in. Otherwise Disney and Walmart just fill in that part of your life with Black Friday and discounted Easter peeps.
Even if it's really cheesy stuff like "May Forth" where you try to make a big movement forward on something on May 4th. Or making lots of pies to eat on pi day.
I also think for every holiday you've lost you're absolutely given the right to make just as many just as big personal holidays to share alone or w friends
yule at my old coworker's home was more fun than any family xmas ever
