Atheists Love Too?

[ksst]

Valentine's Day is a great holiday of celebrating love and lust. I don't see God anywhere. I'm not sure St. Valentine is even a real St. anymore. I think he's one of the de-sainted ones.

I agree with you - time to let go a little ;-) February in Denmark is time for 'fastelavn', which in older times was the one time where you could make fun of authorities - a bit like the Roman Saturnalia. You also make a birch and whipped women with it for fertility, for which service you were supposed to be grateful ;-)

I abhor the commercial element, but do not see anything religious in it. Even school girls and boys give each other cards, boys for boys and girls for girls too, it is a friendship thing.
