I Have a Dream

5-day vacay! Thank god for Eid. I love organized religion if only for their holidays. I have a dream that one day all the world religions will unite so that every day of the year will be a holiday, a celebration of this saint or that prophet, of the end of the Muslim holy month or the beginning of the Jewish one. We hold these several truth variants to be self-evident (but only in the eyes of the believer), and that all religions are created equal. I have a dream that we will one day live in a world where our religions are not judged by their followers or their tenets or the color of the mildew in their pews, but by the content of their holidays (mainly, whether there are gifts involved). Free at last! Free at last! Thank God/Yahweh/El/Allah/Ar-Rahman/Ar-Rahim/Al-Malik/...(there are 99 names of Allah) Almighty, we are free at last!
