Fathers are not as respected in western society

Re: Happy father's day

Screw America again for that reason. I love my parents and they are both equally respected and important to me. My family is always in my heart and I can't imagine how one member could be more important to me then the other. That's just freakin rediculous.

Re: Happy father's day

I know, I respect my father too. But Father's day always came off to me as an odd holiday. I looked on wikipedia and apparently they made it up in 1910 to compliment mother's day, which is thousands of years older and is basically rooted to ancient mother goddesses such as Cybele, Juno, and in the case of Armenians, probably Anahid.

There was never such a thing as a father's cult (Zeus, the Lord thy Father, and all masculine Gods were never worshiped by placating one's biological father), but only a mother's cult (in which case you could worship a Mother Goddess by giving thanks and gifts to your biological mother), and therefore, no such thing as father's day but only mother's day, throughout human history.

But in any case, to all fathers who care for their families, "Respect".

Re: Happy father's day

I read somewhere that Mother's day was created by a woman that was never a mother.
