We skip it, then every 30 years we collect up all the spare days and create a new month.

hah very tricky :-)

yes. They do have a fourth of July in the calender, but they do not have an independence day.

Seriously? It's the US Independence Day. Do you know what independent means? Oh Jeez, never mind - you mean July 4th - as in the date....duh!!!

Yes those of us in the UK do have the 4th July - but it's nothing special - no different from the 1st, 2nd or 10th or 20th - just another day.

Just for the record we don't have 'Thanksgiving Day' either.

Sure. They have the 4th of July everywhere. It follows the 3rd of July.

hmmmm

Ha ha, very funny.

Of course they have the 4th of July. It just doesn't happen to be a holiday.

It was the day you kicked us out and started your decline into mis-management.
You celebrate it :-)

Katie

that question kinda answered your question, England is not part of the USA

sarch_uk

We certainly do...as does every part of the UK and also all of the rest of the world!

Yes of course we have a 4th of July, it's called the 4th of July. We tend to burn US presidents in effigy.

Anamaria UK

Yes. It comes between the 3rd of July and the 5th of July. Every year.

the fourth of july is also called independance day, so england would not have it because it is celebrating when america seperated from england.

michael l

once every year! A normal day.

No...Independance Day is about gaining Independance from another country. I dont think England was ever officially taken over by another country. They probably have compareable holidays though that we dont have (like Bastille Day in France.)

of course they have the 4th of July.....they dont celebrate anything tho, its just another day on the calendar

kendra26uk

no why would we?? lol the United Kingdom does not and never has celebtrated the 4th july..it is not our celebration it the united states.

Ken B

Of course we use the same calendar as other countries.

steve a

yes - one day after july 3

No... its was the end of the revolutionary war, But one thing is for sure, the British Empire would have won but with Napoleon and his crazy shenanigans made the british pull out their navy to fight a much bigger war. If any American says "We beat your @ss in the Revolutionary war!" its not true. If the British navy was allowed to stay for a week or more, they would have won.

But all in all, they dont care. Just the same with america on Guy Fawkes night or Bonfire night as it is more commonly known as.

zmanjohn00

Yes, and the Spanish have Cinco de Mayo as well.

NO it is the USA becoming independent from England.

yet they need to celebrate independence in God everyday, and build family values as the USA needs to do too=I suggest=help from above-in honor and care with commitment, any decent acting girl or guy should expect to be respected.

and this is a guide to help you understand= John 3 repent from sins, even one lie and ask Jesus in to be your friend and help you understand, amen.

this helped me most the words of Jesus spoken from heaven for us= Revelation 1:1 (chapter 1: verse 1) & 3:19&20 "As many as I love I rebuke and chasten, be quick therefore and repent (turn from your sins/even one lie, to me. Behold I stand at your heart's door and knock, if you hear my word and open the door, I will come in and be your friend."

so i prayed "Jesus forgive me for my lust and lies, and other things and help me do better, be my friend, amen."

and truely Jesus became my best friend.

then your ready for the respect of others and the joy of life and heaven too=Seize the Day with Dietrich Bonhoeffer

Simplicity of the Good News
"It will always be true that the wisest course for the disciple is always to abide solely by the word of God in all simplicity." - THE COST OF DISCIPLESHIP
Putting God's Principles into action
We can make it all very difficult. In fact, we can make the good news obscure. We can make it an object of historical study, or the focus of a philosophical or ethical treatise, rather than a word which addresses us and challenges us to believe its precepts and to live accordingly. What is difficult about the Bible is not so much in understanding it, but in living it out.
What the Bible is saying
But God has blessed you, because your eyes can see and your ears can hear! Many prophets and good people were eager to see what you see and to hear what you hear. But I tell you that they did not see or hear. (Matthew 13:16-17)
Thoughts
The disciple wants to hear the Word of the Master and, because he or she loves the Master and is loved by Him, finds the Masters words believable and livable.

Praying the best for you too, David
