The 5 de mayo is not a major holiday in Mexico, its a solemn day actually, and it wasn’t a ragtag of Mexican peasants but the best army we could assemble for such important battle. It’s only celebrated like that in the USA, so it is more a American holiday than an actual Mexican holiday. You celebrate it as if it were the 4th of July. Learn and investigate a little before talking.
And there are always religious people waiting next to the death bed of a dying atheist like vultures just to see them falter. And that’s what you said is just a misconception, because we have lived all our life without needing a god, just like a real adult should do it, and the religious are alway praying and weeping asking god for forgiveness and before the first difficulty they face in their lives are praying to get help in anything like little kids, even to tie their shoes.
Just like Hobbes
