Columbus Day, we know in America, was invented by the Knights of Columbus, a Catholic fraternal service organization. Back in the 1930s, were seeking a Catholic hero as a model for their children could enjoy. In 1934, following pressure from the Knights of Columbus, Congress and President Franklin Roosevelt signed the law in Columbus Day as a national holiday in honor of this brave explorer. Or so we thought.
The stock will open today and if you also work in a place and then go to work today, which shows that the business does not recognize Columbus Day. The United States is not really anything that will celebrate Columbus Day today, many other countries, including several European countries have also held day.The Columbus is primarily an effect of the Calvinist Puritan roots of American Progressivism . As Calvinists believe in the centrality of the depravity of man, with the exception of a tiny contingent.
What Columbus found more than half a millennium is more than land or continent. His epic adventure of the unknown did not reveal the trade route for further research, he outlined the limitless possibilities of a new frontier. It is this intrepid and the spirit of possibility that came to define America, so many families are still attracted by our shores.In commemorate the historic voyage of Christopher Columbus there are 518 years, the Congress, by joint resolution April 30, 1934 and amended in 1968, 36 USC 107, as amended, has requested the President declared the second Monday of October every year as “Columbus Day”.
