HOLY INNOCENTS (1st Century)

This memorial honors Bethlehem's newborn sons killed by King Herod when he found out about the birth of Jesus hoping he'd be able to eliminate any threat from a rival.

But 2000 years later it evolved into a light happy day the equivalent of Aprils Fools' Day, but never like some serious tactics that some people do on others on April Fools. This is more just a happy fun day to tease people, really innocent, nothing serious! We celebrate the day in keeping with the innocence of children! I guess this is more a Christian or maybe, just a Catholic celebration, or even just a Filipino Xmas tradition, I don't know.

Happy Innocents' Day!
