The U.S. celebrates the birthdays of Lincoln and Washington that fall close together. There's Mother's and Father's Day, Labor Day and Veteran's Day, Valentine's, Independence Day, Thanksgiving, Easter and Christmas. But who decided that April was "Earth Month" or that April 22 is "Earth Day"? Why are we expected to worship the planet that was here billions of years before we showed up and will likely be here long after we manage to destroy ourselves with cataclysmic wars. And it is worship that is at the heart of these two events. That alone should tell you how essentially pagan they are.https://climatechangedispatch.com/wp-content/uploads/images_pics7_earth_month.jpg
