DREU DON'T BE AN ASSHAT EVERY TIME YOU GET AN OPPORTUNITY p.s. by that I do not mean we should not remember all casualties of all wars; I mean Dreu being controversial every chance he gets is tiresome Yay!

Hooly sums up a very positive way of replacing the list.

I'm not really sure it's appropriate to list specific incidences - inasmuch as some of those people will have different views on. I agree. Drop the list, encourage people to remember and learn from (insert whatever incidents they want). The "every tragedy and day of sadness yet to come" feels like a weak catch all. Should somebody have a pet cause that didn't make "the list", we're right back where all of the past bills end up, as Lord Hooligan pointed out as well.

WHEREAS life is beautiful and worthy of celebrating and
WHEREAS part of this celebration should include reflection of significant events in history and
WHEREAS Talossans of every background and faith should be able to reflect upon the historical events which have the greatest impact on their lives so it is
THEREFORE resolved that the 11th Day of September be commemorated as International Memorial Day and shall be a day of reflection for all Talossans to honor the memory of all tragedies and celebrate all joys of the past.
Let us remember all tragedies from the Babylonian Exile forward which are too numerous to mention, as well as every tragedy and day of sadness yet to come. Let us also rejoice in the beauty of nature that surrounds us and take the time to appreciate life, love and happyiness. Let all Talossans, regardless of faith remember the fallen and oppressed for if we do not learn from history, we will be doomed to repeat it. And let us, on this day, evaluate ourselves and see how we can strive to make the following year more fruitful for ourselves and our society.

There was some discussion of this in the parallel universe thread - I think it was given a broad nod!
