The word, "holiday," comes from the Roman Catholic times where it was a "holy day". Today the idea of "holy" has the scope of all religious activity, regardless of religion. In the US we treat it so generically, and even say "holy cow." Maybe we could say, the leaders of our country are "holy". They seem to be able to make divine statements. Yes, I know, sarcasm is not beautiful and neither is it "holy." Sorry about that.
