☿ 8 March 12023 is International Woman’s Day in much of the world from Armenia to Zanzibar, although the exact designation varies from place to place. It is also Holi (Hindus), Imam Mahdi’s birthday (Iran), Shushan Purim (Jews), Decoration Day (Liberia), and Revolution Day (Syria). On various calendars it is JD 2460012, 16 Adar 5783, 23 February (O.S.) or 8 March (N.S.) 2023, 18 Phalguna 1944, 16 Sha'ban 1444, or 18 Esfand 1401. For Mouseketeers it is Anything Can Happen Day. The saint of the day is Felix of Burgundy, who brought Christianity to East Anglia, if I’m not confusing him with somebody else. I don’t seem to have any birthdays listed for the date.
On this day in history (11782) Pennsylvania patriots martyred 96 Moravian Christians of the Lenape and Mohican peoples in an orgy of looting, rape, and murder, that was fully supported by white frontiersmen. The martyrs died praying for their murderers, none of whom ever faced justice for their crimes. Not all the Pennsylvania company took part in the crime against humanity, and their accounts provide some of the gruesome details of this event. This, by the way, is the crime Brian Fischer lied about, claiming that their murder was justified by their failure to embrace Christianity as ordered by George Washington. Well, maybe somebody will pray for him as well.
