An Anhui school educated students to boycott foreign festivals and published "Christmas is a shame for China people". Should people in China celebrate foreign festivals?

This is also based on personal preference. If you find it interesting, you can attend. If you are bored, you don't have to force yourself. It is the so-called loyalty to your own heart, so that you can live more yourself. It is no problem for China people to celebrate "foreign festivals", but for most people, it is largely to keep up with the trend.

On the surface, it is. With the increasingly serious worship of foreign things and the increasingly deserted traditional festival atmosphere, China's traditional culture seems to have been cornered. But I think it is necessary to define what is "culture" first. From the anthropological point of view, culture is humanized, that is, it distinguishes the essential attributes of human beings and animals. In fact, at this stage, cultures in various regions are facing the dilemma of cultural inheritance and development.

Because the difference between human nature and animal instinct is not clear, it is difficult to rationally judge the advanced nature and superiority of culture, good or bad, healthy or unhealthy, and it is impossible to better adjust the relationship between different cultures and civilizations, leading to conflicts between religions and nations, threats of war, cultural barriers, and so on.

To solve this dilemma, the key problem lies in the vitality of culture. Only by being more inclusive and open and advancing with the times can we better absorb foreign nutrition, expand culture and give local culture a strong development space. Especially in today's era of highly integrated world civilization and accelerated global communication, it is unwise to resist and discriminate against each other. Any higher level of human civilization should be more open and inclusive. This is the so-called "cultural confidence". Moreover, in the western "foreign festivals", there are many factors that attract people to be kind. For example, Father's Day, Mother's Day, Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day and so on are all festivals that convey beautiful feelings, such as love and gratitude to people. However, China people have also emphasized filial piety, loyalty and kindness since ancient times. In fact, the two are not contradictory in the cultural core.
