    @Thistlesifter220 Too bad so many don’t want to know the history behind the things we do, when we don’t learn from our? mistakes we often have to repeat the problems that are born of making them (the mistakes).

    Talking about love. God the Father loved us so much, He gave us Jesus for us to be saved and Jesus loved us so much he gave himself up in? the cross as a lamb to be sacrificed to save us so whoever believes in him have everlasting life.

    Tradition? suggests that on the day of his execution for his Christian faith, he left a note of encouragement for a child of his jailer written on an irregularly-shaped piece of paper. This greeting became a pattern for millions of written expressions of love and caring that now are the highlight of Valentine’s Day in many nations.

    It’s funny, how many people today (especially anti Catholics and protestants) keep denying the reality! Even more, cannot accept the fact that most of the traditions that we celebrate today has been originated from the Catholic Church traditions. If you have your own version of the? ”History of Valentine’s Day,” then, ”REFERENCE PLEASE…”

    A girl asked a guy if he thought she was pretty? and he said no. She asked him if he would want to be with her forever and he said no. She then asked him if she were to leave would he cry, and once again he replied with a no. She had heard enough. As she walked away, tears streaming down her face……………..The boy grabbed her arm and said “YOU LIKE GETTING IN THE ASS?”

    I suggest being very leery of anything one hears on? the History Channel, and I can almost guarantee that St. Valentine’s Day was not “invented” by Rome or the Christians.

    If they had said that the Church co-opted a pagan holiday, that I could believe. Admittedly, I do not know what pagan holiday, the church wanted to preempt, but I am sure with a little research, the answer could be found. I’m betting it has to do with Spring time and/or Cupid/Eros, which has nothing to do with the Church.
