Why are Muslin holidays on my calendar? I am not a Muslin and prefer now to have them on my calendar. How can I remove them?

I’ll just use Google calendar instead. Apple should allow its users (who bought and own Apple products, BTW) to edit the calendar anyway we want! This is pure PC adding everyone’s so called holidays. Change your policy Apple!

Did you bother reading any of this thread? Apple didn't invent the subscription calendar standard. And, the standard doesn't allow editing. But, there are thousands of calendars available. I'm sure there's one that would satisfy your particular prejudices.

Since when did PREFERENCES become PREJUDICES. You assume an awful lot.

I don't think I'm assuming much at all when someone gets their knickers in a twist over holidays from religions different from theirs and uses loaded terms like "PC" and "so called holidays".


By the way, they're not "so called" holidays. They're actual holidays.

This is completely ridiculous! Apple should stick to the federal US holidays for its "U.S. Holidays" calendar and if they do want to add religious holidays then at least let us choose which ones we want to see. Options to add holidays in calendar should look like this:


U.S. Holidays (Federal Holidays)

Christian Holidays

Catholic Holidays

Jewish Holidays

Muslim Holidays

and so on and so on....


Each religions should be available to add to the calendar if the user chooses to...

Well, apparently you did.


I have a very simple solution to holidays on my calendar that I don't celebrate, like Good Friday and Easter. I ignore them. The same way I ignore them on the wall calendar in my kitchen. It's even less effort than unchecking the subscription calendar.

If I've never heard of them before, as with Holi, I look them up and take the opportunity to learn more about the world in which I live.
