  • I learned about it some in school but mostly from going to the homes of jewish friends. I liked the story behind the mennorah and was blown away as a gentile kid that my friends were getting eight days of presents while I was only getting one.

  • C'mon People, Of course these kids dont know wtf it is…..You can't even talk about Christmas in school anymore so Why the fuck would they teach all the other religion's holiday celebrations. Blame the religious freaks that cannot share a holiday for getting KNOWLEDGE banned from schools. These kids are your own doing

  • What's so surprising? Honestly? A bunch of people don't know about a particular religion, so what? It's like everyone here is expecting everyone else to be aware of this holiday just because it's Jewish. No one seems to care about non-Muslims who can't name a single Muslim holiday, Christians who aren't aware of neo-Pagan holidays, or even Protestants who don't get Ash Wednesday. Newsflash!: We don't live in a world full of cultured college grads! The world is full of idiots with Twitter feeds, as evidenced by the ethnocentric comments here. Leave the ignorant to their ignorance, or lead them out of it. But either way, get over yourselves. And quit feeding the trolls.

  • Are you people slow? Google “Hannukah” —its a holiday that's thousands of years old. Then, apologize to yourself for your own ignorance and make a NY resolution to not be so uninformed.
