Before I could think about why this moment exists, I had to look it up.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cinco_de_Mayo

Cinco de Mayo has its roots in the second French intervention in Mexico, which took place in the aftermath of the 1846–48 Mexican–American War and the 1858–61 Reform War. The Reform War was a civil war that pitted Liberals (who believed in separation of church and state and freedom of religion) against Conservatives (who favored a tight bond between the Catholic Church and the Mexican state).

I don't label myself as Liberal nor Conservative but I am in favor of separation of church and state.

Especially when the church in question was forced on the people.

So I thought about it, researched it, and this is what I found out.

Let's all try to respect each other and not force things on each other.

Happy day and week to all!
