Seriously, though, t3gah, it sounds as if the issues from your childhood are affecting your perception of what most others percieve as an innocent holiday. Can you seek counselling from your pastor/priest/ whomever? I only suggest this because it seems as if, otherwise, one would be so frustrated that it would begin to effect their mood. You are, of course, entitled to your beliefs. Thankfully, we all are.
