Yes, I agree with Bryan and Casey. You need only poke around
[[Category:Religious festivals]] to see what wonderful images we have.
I have been thinking of searching for images in Flickr on religious
festivals from all around the world to enrich this category further,
inspired by my success with [[Lucia]] (the young man whose photos I uploaded
was thrilled to see them on Wikipedia).

I also don't think Wikimedia/Commons should endorse one particular
religion (or religious festival) in this way. Transcending cultural
barriers is core to what we are trying to achieve and giving a nod to
a particular religious/cultural practice doesn't seem compatible.

We have enough high quality pictures on Commons to create greeting
cards for every major religious festival, all independence days of all
countries and all days of the year. Sounds like a great idea to me.
