    Your argument is flawed. Heritage cannot be chosen. Following a certain religion is a choice however.

      I think that’s also a flawed argument. I think culture, heritage, religion are more intertwined than you think.

      Assuming you’re American,l (but if not I’m sure you can extrapolate to a relevant example from your own country) isn’t celebrating Thanksgiving equally as morally bad? Genocide of the native people in the name of Puritan Christianity?

      And what of the “Holiday Season” — are you telling me you don’t celebrate Christmas or Hannukah?, because the moment you do aren’t you celebrating all the awful things that happen in those Holy Books, which if I recall is a lot of incest and rape too. Does celebrating Christmas make everyone a rapist?

      And yet all those are “choices”.
