  i bet many of you my 5 readers (yes there's five of you now) don't know the origins of the St. Valentines Day, the most worthless of them holidays.
It all goes back to the third century in Rome. It turns out that at the time there were a few wolves outside the city of Rome and they used to attack the sheppers once in a while until the God Lupercus started to look over the shepperds and drove the wolves away. So it was then when the Romans started to celebrate in February the Lupercalia Feast to thank Lupercus for his protection. Also during the Lupercalia, but in honor of urlLink Juno the Romans used to hold a raffle of young women.
Putting the names of the girls to be given away in a box and matching them with the men participating in the raffle, they were considered a couple for a whole year. This is yet another reason why this holiday shouldn't exist, from hungry wolves to the giveaway of women. There are many more things wrong with this celebration. Not that im bitter or anything.
