I hate to sound like whining, but I feel jealous and cheated that people with professed religions get special benefits. It's not as though people who don't profess their religions, or those without specific religious affiliation don't have inner needs of their own which they also need time to tend to.
I feel like there should be an "average" compromise and everyone should get the benefit. That way there is no awkward incentive in any direction.

- harimau777 8y agoI completely agree, Atheists should get the same treatment as religious people for dates and practices that are important to them. Obviously I don't want to tell other people how to practice their beliefs, but I never understood why, for example, Atheists don't put up memorials to important humanists (or something else meaningful to them) next to the Nativity scenes and Menorahs that people put up in public during the Holidays.

- maxxxxx 8y agoI feel the same. Everybody should get the same benefits independently of religion.
