Is it just me, or is there something strangely suspicious about Valentine's Day? If you didn't know anything about it's history, you would think that there was just some sort of commercial conspiracy involving the greeting card industry and all florists. Originally this day was celebrated as Saint Valentine's Day, or the Feast of Saint Valentine. While this day began as a liturgical celebration in the church, it is primarily observed these days as an occasion to express romantic love.
