The Complex Pallet of Human Existence

Why is it important to have special holidays or holy days to remember God's intervention? (Serendipity Bible Fourth Edition, page 292). 

To a nonbeliever the meaning of Christmas and Easter is secular and perhaps related mainly to merchandising. It can also represent the weakness of believers and their tendencies towards escapism in which they create a Creator and fancy a Redeemer. Beneath these views of nonbelievers are the materialistic sourcing of all nature and the rending of spirituality from human life.  To a believer, on the other hand, such acerbic views are nonrational and derive from elemental idiosyncratic emotions grounded within a petulant insistence upon self-sufficiency; these viewpoints ignore the timeline of eternity and represent a callow and shallow assessment of actual human existence. 

Albert Einstein made an important and sobering observation: Feeling and longing are the motive forces behind all human endeavor and human creations (Albert Einstein).
